[bug] Duplicate entries in plugin recententries

deminy · Post by **deminy** » Tue Apr 18, 2006 5:58 pm

Serendipity's version: 1.0 beta 1
Plugin: serendipity_plugin_recententries
version: 1.4

Problem: If a recent entry is set to belong to 2 categories, that entry will be shown twice in the "recent entries" slidebar.

Hmmm. I just installed the same thing on my 1.0-alpha2 blog. It claims to be version 1.4. No duplicate entries, even though most of my stuff is under multiple categories.

What options did you pick in the plugin configuration? Did you pick multiple categories to show? When I do that, I do get multiple entries.

Well, that explains it, then. I modified the plugin so line 149 reads "SELECT DISTINCT id" instead of just "SELECT id".

I just updated the plugin in the repository. It should be available for upgrading in 24 hours or so.

I also use plugin "startcat" (hide certain category from start page).

I guess using this "startcat" event plugin with the "recent entries" sidebar plugin could cause the problem. Just a guess.

Following what you said above, the problem is solved in my blog. Thanks.
