just one page that fetches all posts and display a list of all the posts links?
just links not content!

can this be done on s9y?

thanks

Can you put that into a bit of context? Is this supposed to replace a page view that currently behaves differently?

My first instinct is to use serendipity_fetchPrintEntries and a custom tpl that only shows the entry title....

Well, you've almost got what i meant..
i thought about this when i was trying to get to an old post from 4 or 5 months ago and i had to search for it and click through some links to get finally to it.

and if it's possible to have just one page that lists all the entries titles/url on the blog that will make calling old posts urls easy task.

i also checked the plugin that enables the post url when you type [[title]] but that only worked when i know the exact title!

Hi!

Like Don suggested, using a custom template file would be sufficient for that. But it involves some custom coding.

1: Edit your template's content.tpl (copy it over from templates/default/content.tpl if you don't have it already in your template directory).

Modify this:

Code: Select all

{$ENTRIES}
{$ARCHIVES}

to this:

Code: Select all

{if $smarty.get.fullview}
{serendipity_fetchPrintEntries limit=9999 template="full.tpl"}
{else}
{$ENTRIES}
{$ARCHIVES}
{/if}

This IF-Check will check on a special variable (see later) if you want the full output. If yes, it uses serendipity_fetchPrintEntries (documented on http://www.s9y.org/78.html) to fetch 9999 entries and use the template "full.tpl" to display them.

2: Create a full.tpl template file. In its most basic form it would look like this:

Code: Select all

{foreach from=$entries item="dategroup"}
  {foreach from=$dategroup.entries item="entry"}
    <p><a href="{$entry.link}">{$entry.title}</a></p>
  {/foreach}
{/foreach}

3: Call your blog via index.php?fullview=1 (fullview is this special variable that was mentioned) and now your special template will be parsed.

Thanks i'll definitely try this tonight.. just one question,
if i edited BP content.tpl and created the full.tpl files.

will that affect ONLY index.php?fullview=1 ??
and i'm using premalinks domain/archives/post-name will these changes have any effect on other links? or just index.php?fullview=1

Hi!

Only index.php?fullview=1 will be affected.

Hi there,
First.. sorry for not replying all that time, i was in a business trip and couldn't perform my daily stuff online.

IT WORKS,
for some reason the random post sidebar plugin doesn't work on index.php?fullview=1
but basically it shows all the blog posts.

thanks guys

btw, something just came to my mind.. is it possible to get these links numbered? or making it looks a little prettier?
when i first thought about that page was only for my own usage but i'm thinking about letting others see it too

i'm happy with it now as i does exactly what i need, so if customizing it needs lot of work then i'll keep it for myself.

thanks again gravin, Don

Perfect timing for your question as someone else needed something like this too (but not for visible numbering)...

In your custom entries.tpl file, try this....

Code: Select all

{counter start=1 assign='count'}
{foreach from=$entries item="dategroup"}
  {foreach from=$dategroup.entries item="entry"}
    <p><a href="{$entry.link}">{$count}.  {$entry.title}</a></p>
    {counter assign='count'}
  {/foreach}
{/foreach}

You can move the "{$count}. " outside of the <a> if you do not want it to be part of the hyperlink.

That will give you a running counter that does not reset with each change in the outer dategroup loop.

That worked. Now how do I get that to load when the site loads without having to call it via index.php?fullview=1?

Hi!

I think then you could use "{if $view == 'start'}" instead of "{if $smarty.get.fullview}".

A better suggestion you once made:

Code: Select all

{if $view == 'start' AND $staticpage_pagetitle == ''}

You guys are good! That's doing EXACTLY what I'd hoped for.

Thanks,
