Related Weblog Problem - entries list disappears on details page

Hello,

I’m using ExpressionEngine 1.6.7, Build: 20090122, and I’ve installed the Playa extension to establish multiple relationships among weblogs.

I have set up two main weblogs. One is called “idea_categories” and one is called “ideas.” Multiple “idea_categories” may be assigned to each “idea.”

I have created three category landing pages to display links to all related “ideas.” Here is an example:

http://pedrera.ehclients.com/index.php/Ideas/networks/

The secondary navigation on the left may be used to navigate among the category landing pages. The problem is that this navigation disappears on the “details” template, accessed when one of the links on the landing page is clicked – the “Timescapes” link on the page referenced above, for instance:

http://pedrera.ehclients.com/index.php/Ideas/details/timescapes/

This is the code that is not returning the list of “idea_categories”:

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="ideas_categories" orderby="title" sort="asc"} <li>{title}</li> {/exp:weblog:entries}

(The “custum_url” field is a custom field I added to the “ideas_categories” weblog to store the template name of the appropriate landing page.)

I hope this makes sense.

Thanks, John

Hi, John. Welcome to the ExpressionEngine forums.

Since you are using a third party extension, I’m going to move this to the Extensions forum. The author (Brandon Kelly) should be able to help you troubleshoot this.

Thanks, Sue! I think I just figured out the fix, but I’ll look at the Extensions forum anyway!

I seem to have fixed the problem by adding the “dynamic” parameter and setting it to off. Also, I think I had an extra set of nested tick marks. The now-functioning loop is:

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="ideas_categories" orderby="title" sort="asc" dynamic="off"} <li>{title}</li> {/exp:weblog:entries}

Thanks! 😊
