CGBlog - Help needed - A couple of things

[Peciura]

Maybe it's due to internal pretty urls turned on.. don't know.

Pretty ?... I am not using pretty urls Try this one.

Code: Select all

{foreach from=$entry->categories item='one_category'}
{capture assign='urlparam'}?&category={$one_category.name}{/capture}
{cms_selflink page='dynamic_categories' urlparam=$urlparam text=$one_category.name}<br/>
{/foreach}

Also, I'm not sure why do you use l 'detailpage=$pagealias' - is this mandatory or not?

It is not mandatory.  Variable "$pagealias" outputs alias of the same page it is placed on (that is "dynamic_categories").

Hey this code works! Thanks 

Now I just have to hide the page "dynamic_categories" i.e. to not show in the menu.

Tell what you have already done, step by step. Also give link to page.

1st installing the module;
2 typing in text commands module;
3 I added entries to different categories (2),
4 I tried to run a list of categories, but are not shown. I used your methods showed some link, but this did not work, other codes do not function at all.

This code not working.
{foreach from=$entry->categories item='one_category'}
{capture assign='urlparam'}?&category={$one_category.name}{/capture}
{cms_selflink page='blog' urlparam=$urlparam text=$one_category.name}
{/foreach}

extreme not working

a.   Smarty code you have mentioned should be in CGBlog detail template.
b.   It creates links to page ('blog') where blog records of one category willl be displayed. Only those categories will be listed that article belongs to . (link name is the same as category)
c.   In order to filter articles by category page 'blog' should have tag

Code: Select all

{CGBlog category=$smarty.get.category detailpage=$pagealias}

I have a simpler solution. put this in content/tpl.
{cms_module module="cgblog" action="browsecat"}

just do not know why I had not worked. and may be overlooked.

anyway, thanks for your help

I found this for when you have pretty urls on:
Put this in either the summary and/or detail templates in cgblog

{if $entry->categories}
<div class="CGBlogSummaryCategory">
{strip}
{foreach from=$entry->categories item='one_category'}
{foreach from=$categories item='one'}
{if $one_category.name == $one.name}
<a href="{$one.url}" title="{$one.name}">{$one.name}</a>&nbsp;
{/if}
{/foreach}
{/foreach}
{/strip}
</div>
{/if}
