When adding the news tag to display a news article in detail I am getting an error where the whole page doesn't display and I get
Code: Select all
Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server
The News tag and parameters I am using is
Code: Select all
{news category="Projects" number="1" detailpage="projects-and-case-studies" detailtemplate="01_projectdetail" action="detail"}
However, if I add
The latest news article displays with no error. Unfortunately, I only want news from the Projects category to display.
I've tried a few variations ie not including the category parameter to test what variations work. Only adding the articleid works.
Any help advice gratefully received.

Hi
I followed the recommendations on the link.
I've set "Default page to use for detail views" in News Options to the Projects page, alias=projects. Reset the page alias to projects on the page content and on the News detailpage='projects'.
The news tag works with the following
Code: Select all
{news category="Projects" number="1" detailpage="projects" detailtemplate="01_projectdetail" articleid="-1" action="detail"}
If I remove the articleid="-1" the page fails.
I've cleared the cache etc, just to be on the safe side, still no joy?

I guess the articleid parameter is required for the action=detail.

Exactly same issue... only works when I use this article_id=-1 trick
My code rending no error (but not with the right category filter) :
Code: Select all
{News category="fr_FR" number='1' detailpage="accueil" detailtemplate="News Detail Sample" action="detail" articleid="-1"}
Where does this trick come from by the way?

I don't understand the problem. If you want to display a specific item in detail view then supply the item id.
What exactly is it what you want to do?

I wanted to display only the detail templates when I call a specified category.
This way does not work:
Code: Select all
{News category="fr_FR" action="detail"}
so I tried other ways...
This way is ok:
but I had to modify "News::Summary" template and it looked not logical to me to deal with it...
Finally I guess it's normal, I must have misunderstood something, I modified this "Summary" template to display only details, by deleting the summary relative code stuff...
