Category titles switching from Listit2 to LISE

[martinpescador]

Hello together,

I have a question about LISE after updating from Listit2. I have some entries as "accordeon links" which extend on click (containing a text ("beschreibung" and some images ("gallery")), which should be sorted by category, with the category as a title. Like this:

Category 1
Entry 1 (extends on click)
Entry 2 (extends on click)
Entry 3 (extends on click)

Category 2
...


In Listit2, I managed to do it like that:

Code: Select all

{assign var='current_category' value=''}
{assign var='open' value=false}

{foreach from=$items item=item}

{if $current_category != $item->category_alias}
    {if $open}</div><!-- items -->{/if}
    <h1 class="category-title">{$item->category_name|cms_escape}</h1>
    <div class="items">
    {assign var='current_category' value=$item->category_alias}
    {assign var='open' value=true}
{/if}

<div id="accordion" class="item">
<h2 class="item-title">{$item->title|cms_escape}</h2>
<div class="item-content">
{if !empty($item->fielddefs)}
    <div class="item-properties">
    {foreach from=$item->fielddefs item=fielddef}
      
                         {if !empty($fielddef.value) && ($fielddef.name != 'gallery')}  
    {$fielddef.value|cms_escape}
{/if}
                         
       
    {/foreach}
{capture assign="gallery"}{$item->fielddefs.gallery.value}{/capture}
{Gallery dir=$gallery template="fancybox"}

   </div> </div>
{/if}
</div>
{/foreach}
</div>

That doesn't work anymore, and now I am trying since quite some time, and I cant really figure out how to get the same results, because I do not really understand the rules which apply depending on which template category (category, summary, detail, search) is selected actually.

Can you give me a hint how I would have to proceed to display the categories?
Thank you very much already.

You may be struggling with Smarty variable scopes. Check this article in Rolf's tutorials site. That might help.
