Hi!
Is there a tag for listing channels?
Something like this:
{exp:channel:info}
Channel Name: {channel_title}
{/exp:channel:info}/regards David S, Sweden

Hi David,
Thanks for your question!
The Channel Info tag won’t get you what you are after. You have to supply it with a channel that you want information about, rather than it listing out all channels.
I found Blog Info, which is similar, but supports multiple channel short names.
I couldn’t find anything that would just output a list of all available channels. Which I think is odd 😕
Cheers,

Hi David,
Here is a pretty awesome Add-On called Get Channels.
I tried it and it’s pretty nice.
One thing to note, the Developer says that site_id is optional, but it’s not. If you do not set site_id then you will get an error calling out that line number.
With the Add-On installed I use the code below and I get a very cool listing of my channels.
<pre><code>
{exp:getchannels site_id="1"}
Channel: {channel_name}<br>
{/exp:getchannels}
Enjoy!
Cheers,

Hi David,
The Developer updated the Add-On and will post the updated version to Devot:ee tonight.
Once it’s there, the site_id will no longer need to be specified. It defaults to “1”.
Just letting you know.
Cheers,
