[quote="Dr.CSS"]Sorry...
{if $page_alias == 'news'}
top job that's the one! Knew we'd get there in the end
thank yoooooou
edit: it does still return a 'some content' block on every page - though I guess it's not a biggie - now using
Code: Select all
{if $page_alias == 'news'}
{content block='some content'}
{else}
{news number="1"}
{/if}

You know it has just occured to me that I really don't need that 'some content' block at all - as I have a content block below news which fills the same space if news doesn't exist. What ideally I would to say is: if pagealias =="news", do nothing, else call {news}. Is that possible
?? sorry for being difficult :/

Woot Woot! Just managed to find through trial and error that this seems to do what I am trying to achieve...
{if $page_alias == 'news'}
{*}
{else}
{news number="1"}
{/if}
is that the correct way of doing it? if page=news do nothing and else show news summary?

It's correct but you can be shorter:
Code: Select all
{if $page_alias !== 'news'}
{news number=1}
{/if}
the ! means: NOT

Oppsy!!!! I should have caught that error before... sorry! Been busy and running from one place to another.
If I had been more careful in answering, this thread would probably be a lot shorter...
