Okay, so I've been using v1.1x for over four years now. In that version the titles of articles are links to the articles themselves. I put together a test-install of 1.3x to get familiar with before I finally upgrade my real installation, but now the only link to get to the articles is the more... link following the summary. If I uncheck the option in the article set up and remove the more link, I have no link at all into the article. Is this the way it's supposed to be, or is something screwed up?
In either case, does a workaround for this condition exist? I couldn't search effectively for an answer since the forum search engine ignores the relevant keywords.
Article titles as links?
Re: Article titles as links?
Like it is with newer versions. There's no difference. But the article alias has become more important.ExVee wrote:...the titles of articles are links to the articles themselves...
Do you have any experience yet with CP 'link article' / CP 'teaser'?

Re: Article titles as links?
If I understand correctly you should edit the templates that you use for articles (default.tmpl, sample.tmpl....), and replace
with
Code: Select all
{TITLE}
Code: Select all
<a href="{ARTICLELINK}">{TITLE}</a>
Re: Article titles as links?
I do not, no. The behavior I'm used to of course is having the {CONTENT} tag is a page template and all the articles in the category level being linked to automatically. I've only been working with this version a few days and this issue only just got to the top of my list.Do you have any experience yet with CP 'link article' / CP 'teaser'?
Well, I had thought so too, but... I couldn't find default.tmpl to edit. I found sample.tmpl, but my articles are all preset to default and I haven't found a way to change the template without affecting the last edit date. Or for lack of the file existing, am I intended to just make a file called default.tmpl which will take over the current "default" spot?edit the templates
Re: Article titles as links?
The default templates are stored in /template/inc_default/ and should be left "as is" and the samples are in template/inc_cntpart/cntpartname/...... Here you can change everything to your liking: download one, change it and do an upload while changing the name to something like my_new_big_bang.tmpl or whatever the extension has been....
Now you can select this new one from within the appropriate Content Part template-pull- down-and-select menu....

Alright! That's what I needed. I should be back in shape shortly. Thanks very much!
