My URL is http://localhost:8888/eedemo/movies/entry
Movies is a template group. Entry is the template within it. The entry template shows the actual entry and the entry is attached to a category in a movies channel.

On the entry template, I have this code that is correctly outputting the category name using this code:

{exp:channel:entries channel="movies"}
<div class="category">
    {categories}
                <a href="http://{path=movies/wiki/{category_url_title}}">{category_name}</a>
       {/categories}                                
</div> <!-- end category -->
{/exp:channel:entries}

As you can see {category_url_title} is not getting parsed.
Category name is correctly outputting thriller as the category. The link however is outputting:

http://localhost:8888/eedemo/movies/wiki/{category_url_title/magazine/thriller}

I want it to output http://localhost:8888/eedemo/movies/wiki/thriller

What am I doing wrong? How do I fix this to point to the category this entry belongs to?

Hi dgink,

Do this instead:

<a href="http://{path=movies/wiki}/{category_url_title}">{category_name}</a>

Does that work? Path tags are parsed at a different stage than category_url_title, so nesting them like that won’t work in this case.
