Hello,

I’m currently pulling in entries from 2 channels on my homepage as follows;

{exp:channel:entries channel="news|calendar_events" limit="4"}
<h2 class="title"><a href="http://{title_permalink=">{title}</a></h2>
{if summary}{summary}{if:elseif event_summary}{event_summary}
{/exp:channel:entries}

Because I am getting entries from 2 different channels, I want to ensure that the title_permalink will go to the appropriate page for that channel. I was wondering how I can achieve this?

I thought about putting in some sort of if statement, based on the channel but it didn’t seem to work.

I was wondering if anyone else had a solution?

By the way, the editor here seems to be stripping out some of my code. The title_permalink is entered correctly as per the user guide;
{title_permalink="news/view"}.

Thanks,
Neil

Neil,

You are probably better off using {comment_url_title_auto_path}. That way you can change the URL defined in each of the channel’s preferences

You should also actually check for something in your conditionals rather than the syntax you used

{exp:channel:entries channel="news|calendar_events" limit="4"}
<h2 class="title"><a href="http://{comment_url_title_auto_path}">{title}</a></h2>
{if summary != ""}{summary}{if:elseif event_summary !=""}{event_summary}{/if}
{/exp:channel:entries}

Hey John,

That’s perfect. Thanks very much. :D
