Hi there

Anyway, I have a blackout at the moment.

I created a Custom Field Group and some Custom Field with the names “content” and “tumb”.
After that, I created a Template for my single pages (single.php). I also created a page with the pages Module (my_work and under pages the url “/work/”) and gave it the right template (myblog/single.php).

I added Content to my page fields for “content” and “tumb” (some Lorem Ipsum).

I added…

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="{my_weblog}" limit="1" rdf="off" disable="trackbacks"}
{content}
{/exp:weblog:entries}

...to my single page template.

But anyway, It only shows the template without my content under “/index.php/work/”.
I’m very confused… Did a lot of settings but it won’t work.

A couple questions:

Is {my_weblog} set to the correct weblog for your Pages module content?  Try replacing it with a direct reference to that weblog.  Secondly, you are missing a declaration in your {exp:weblog:entries} tag to display content from your “tumb” field.  You should have something like:

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="pages_weblog" limit="1" rdf="off" disable="trackbacks"}
{content}
{tumb}
{/exp:weblog:entries}

Thanks for the assist, Tim.

Flying Dutchman, did that make sense?

If you visit the non-pages URI, does it show correctly?

Yep, my_weblog set correct in header. I added only the {content} for test purposes. Do I have to take it all in for a working page?

What do you mean with the non-page URI? Directly over indexphp to my post?

The link to your post without using the Pages module.

That’s my problem. I didn’t find a possible way to find out this link to my post 😉
There is no link to show the post or preview inside the template or i’m too dummy.

What Sue means, is accessing it through a standard EE url:

http://example.com/index.php/templategroup/template/url_title

Didn’t work *grml* everytime the same: my template without the content of my post.

Edit: Tim, you’re right, it was the “my_weblog” which didn’t get replaced.
Now it works.

But I don’t understand why this work

{embed="6pounder/header"}
            
         
            <div id="block_portfolio">
                <div id="block_single">
                    {exp:weblog:entries weblog="6pounder" limit="1" rdf="off" disable="trackbacks"}
                        {content}
                    {/exp:weblog:entries} 

                </div>
            </div>
        


{embed="6pounder/footer"}

and this not:

{embed="6pounder/header"}
            
         
            <div id="block_portfolio">
                <div id="block_single">
                    {exp:weblog:entries weblog="{my_weblog}" limit="1" rdf="off" disable="trackbacks"}
                        {content}
                    {/exp:weblog:entries} 

                </div>
            </div>
        


{embed="6pounder/footer"}

Edit——

I have the lines in my header:

{assign_variable:my_weblog="6pounder"}
{assign_variable:my_template_group="6pounder"}

You are not defining {my_weblog}.  You need to set the variable at the top of the template:

{assign_variable:my_weblog="6pounder"}

{assign_variable:my_weblog="6pounder"}

Sorry, edited. The lines are in my header file already. But, how it looks, it will not be load before the content of my template file…

Embedded templates are processed at the end of the parsing stage.  Even without this, template variables are set on a per-template basis [docs].

It’s really just a convenience thing.

Make sense?

Ok, clear, that makes sense 😉
You see, I’m still familiar to Wordpress. I have to rethink.

Thanks a lot. Now it’s clear.

Glad to see that took care of things… Please come back anytime if you got further issues.
