I have a weblog with a short name of “conference-updates”. I’m using Structure for normal pages, using the “conference-pages” weblog.

On the Home page using the index template, I’m trying to call a snapshot of the Updates section with the 5 latest entries using:

<div id="updates">
            <h2>{exp:weblog:info weblog="conference-updates"}{blog_title}{/exp:weblog:info}</h2>
<p>            {exp:weblog:entries weblog="conference-updates" sort="desc" limit="5"}<br />
                    <br />
            <h3 class="title">{title}</h3>                <br />
            {date_heading}<br />
            <h4 class="date">{entry_date format=' %l, %F %d, %Y '}</h4><br />
            {/date_heading}<br />
            {story}<br />
            {/exp:weblog:entries}<br />
</div>

Only the <h2> is being rendered, not sure what I’m doing wrong? Admittedly this is my first time writing a template.

Are you using any custom statuses? Are the entries dated in the past, and expired, or in the future?

Hey Ingmar,

No custom statuses, yes they’re dated in the past, but no expiration date is set.

Rene,

Try this in an otherwise completely blank template.

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="conference-updates"}
   <h2>{title}</h2>
<p>{/exp:weblog:entries}

Let’s start with the basics and go from there. Does that output correctly?

Yes it does. Odd…

Then build on that template. See at what point it breaks.

Okay, so I created a new template called debug. And it seems to work fine.

Then I switched the template of the Home page using the Structure module and the problem reverts. I guess it’s an issue with structure?

Could be, yes. Does it work fine without it?

Update: Got some help from Travis of Structure. Adding dynamic=“off” to the entries tag fixed it.

Thanks everyone.

Ah, you were using this as a single entry template… yes, that makes sense. Glad to see you’re all set. Please post again in case anything else comes up.
