News Archives by Year/Month ( Tamplate + UDTs )

[nicmare]

you may want to check out cgblog. it has better built in archiving functions

Thanks - I use CGBlog a lot.
It's just that this is an existing site with many news articles already in place and I wanted to avoid moving them into a another module if possible.

I'm struggling to get the year/month feature into cgblog too. I got it all working in News, however since I moved all News items to CGBlog, this feature no longer works. I would be very happy if someone can help me out on this one.

Hi, using cmsms 1.10.1 I've got this error, in the content page where I put Peciura's template (there is only the template in that page and no other content):

Code: Select all

string(110) "Smarty error: [in content:content_en line 57]: [plugin] unknown tag - 'News' (core.load_plugins.php, line 198)" string(122) "Smarty error: [in content:content_en line 57]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'News' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 590)" [url]<a href="http://www.mysite.com/news.html%26news_date%3D2011">2011</a>[/url]

If I click the year 2011 link, I got:

Code: Select all

Not Found

The requested URL /news.html&news_date=2011 was not found on this server.

Any ideas how to solve this issue?

The first error: "unrecognized tag 'News'" is due to a case-sensitive call of the module, and can be solved correcting the template from:

Code: Select all

{News action='detail' detailtemplate='summary' articleid=$articleid}

to:

Code: Select all

{news action='detail' detailtemplate='summary' articleid=$articleid}

404 error, following the "year" link still remain unsolved..

Hi,

I've set this up, and it works fine, but I have a question. I want to show only archived items.

I changed:

Code: Select all

{news action='detail'  articleid=$articleid sortby='news_date'}

to

Code: Select all

{news action='detail'  articleid=$articleid showarchive='1' s ortby='news_date'}

(by adding showarchive='1' )

to pick up only archived items, but it does not work, I am still seeing published articles.

Is there anything I can do to have this functioning?

Thanks,

JC

p.s. I am using CMS 1.8.2

[Jos]

It doesn't make sense to me to use parameter action="detail" in relation to both the showarchive and the sortby parameter.

(optional) action
"detail" - to display a specified articleid in detail mode.

p.s. I am using CMS 1.8.2

Time to upgrade

any one got this working with 1.11.4 - it wont actually allow me to even submit the template...?
