Displaying the content of two or more articles

[prodesign]

Currently phpWCMS allows you to display one article or a listing of two or more articles. Is it possible to display the entirety of two or more articles?

It depends on how you build your system and how you define "article".

It's possible to load full articles like for one-pagers using Ajax or frontend render which based on special comments in the template.

Try inside your template:

Code: Select all

<!--ONEPAGE_START//-->
{CONTENT}
<!--ONEPAGE_END//-->

Then call one page in the browser:
index.php?mypagealias&phpwcms_output_action=F-trim--S-ONEPAGE

With this in mind it's relatively easy.

I have projects where such elements are loaded and cached.

I mean the ability to display all articles with the content in the category:

https://wiki.phpwcms.org/lib/exe/detail ... %3Aarticle

I am looking for a simple option to create a one-page page with a menu for articles.

[Oliver Georgi]

I understand what you mean, and as described above this is how it can work.

There is no built-in mechanism to catch multiple articles in once. You need to write a wrapper to fulfill this.

Check the onepager checkbox under structure level and see what happens to the menu links.

Check this https://www.dr-plank-kelheim.de/ it's built on the above concept.

I checked:

"OnePage ID (#anchor) support " in the "site structure"
and
"treat as OnePage template" in the template

but no work.

/localhost/test/index.php?home&phpwcms_output_action=F-trim--S-ONEPAGE
shows only one article.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong

This is a bit more complex. You just need to take the code I posted above and place it in a template to understand the concept behind – accessing then a page extended by parameters phpwcms_output_action=F-trim--S-ONEPAGE.

Menu and everything else is based on your site structure and what you really wan to do. I have no time to explain it in detail here.
