Hello again,
I have just change from "General Discussion" to here, guess this trouble I have now, fits here better...

I have placed links for archives of the blog on a snippet page that figures as a menu, that is embedded both in the page-view and in the list-view for my blog....But links do not work....As far as I can see, when I click i do get the folder-view, but posts appear just the same as they do when I call the list-view in a descending order
here is the code I wrote:

Code: Select all

<cms:if k_template_name=='mytemplatename.php'> 
                 <div class="archives"><strong>Blogarchive</strong><br />
        <cms:archives masterpage='mytemplatename.php' type='yearly'>
    <a href="<cms:show k_archive_link/>"><cms:date k_archive_date format='Y' /></a>
    (<cms:show k_archive_count />)<br>
</cms:archives>
      </div>
 </cms:if>

thanks in advance again

Hi Tanja,

The links generated by the 'archive' tag will only invoke your template providing it with querystring parameters specifying the selected archive period (the so-called 'archive-view').

It is now upon your code within the template how to (or not to) make use of the parameters.
Please take a quick loot at our documentation explaining hpw to list pages: http://www.couchcms.com/docs/concepts/l ... pages.html.
Following is the 'unified' way recommended there -

Code: Select all

<cms:if k_is_list >
    <cms:pages folder=k_folder_name include_subfolders='1' start_on=k_archive_date stop_before=k_next_archive_date >
        <!-- All the variables of each page belonging to this view are available here -->
    </cms:pages>  
</cms:if>

Notice in the snippet above how we are making use of the 'start_on' and 'stop_before' parameters to make the 'pages' tag list pages from only a specified time period - in effect creating an archive.

Hope this helps.

Thank you so much!!!!!

all works now, I `ve just needed to add those two lines in the list view within pages tag....

Best regards

Tanja
