    In my header I have a channel that lists upcoming events.
    In the body of my page, I have normal blog. 

    I know I can display 2+ channels on the homepage at a time, but what about on interior pages like a comments page for a certain article? 

    My problem is when i built my comments page my events that are in the header don’t display.  I kind of understand why because in the url i am telling it to only show the 1 article, but is there a way to work around this so i can always display the Events in the header no matter what page you are on and then be able to change my content as well.

    For example, say i have a URL like this and on this page I want to display my events plus i want to display the article referenced in the url?

    /index.php/blog/comments/phasellus-ridiculus-scelerisque-enim-ridiculus-porta-nec-arcu-enim-aliquam

    any tips?

    Just one - dynamic=“no” 😉

    Add that to any Channel Entries tag that isn’t working and you should be good to go.

    Hope that helps a bit.

    Best wishes,
