Hi all,
Has anybody been able to use the new category url_title field as a parameter in the {exp:weblog:entries} tag? I’d like to be able to pass this to a template and use it in the {exp:weblog:category_heading} and {exp:weblog:entries} tags, but neither of them seem to accept it as a parameter.
Has anybody been able to make functional use of it? I’m sure I’m missing something obvious.
Many thanks,
Rob

Could you give an exmaple where this would be useful?
When you call a template via a category-link the category is dynamically passed to exp:weblog:entries and exp:weblog:category_heading.

That sounds like exactly what I want to do. What do you mean by a category-link? My current url is index.php/archive/category/{url_title}/
Sorry for being obtuse about this.

Just to clarify, do you have set “Use Category URL Titles In Links?” set to “Yes” under CP Home › Admin › Weblog Administration › Global Weblog Preferences?

Ah—that’s it. I told you I was missing something obvious.
Thank you (for your help and your patience)!
