    After browsing the forum, I’ve figured out how to display multiple weblogs on a single page. My last hurdle is finding a way to link those weblog titles to their post page.

    I realize that I can’t use my_template_group because I’m displaying various weblogs and each has their own unique template group name.
    Could you help me out here please?

    Here is the code I’m using at the moment:

    {exp:weblog:entries orderby="date" sort="desc" weblog="on-thewater|jdm-tackle-watch|guerilla-plugging|guts|bu-chan|green-tsuribito" dynamic="off"  limit="15" disable="pagination|custom_fields|categories|member_data|trackbacks"}
<li><a href="http://{title_permalink={my_template_group}/detail}">{title}</a></li>
{/exp:weblog:entries}

    Hi Michael,

    You can use a conditional based on which weblog the entry belongs to:

    {exp:weblog:entries orderby="date" sort="desc" weblog="on-thewater|jdm-tackle-watch|guerilla-plugging|guts|bu-chan|green-tsuribito" dynamic="off"  limit="15" disable="pagination|custom_fields|categories|member_data|trackbacks"}
  {if weblog_short_name == 'on-thewater'}
    <li><a href="http://{title_permalink=water/detail}">{title}</a></li>
  {if:elseif weblog_short_name == 'jdm-tackle-watch'}
    // and so on…
  {/if}
{/exp:weblog:entries}

    Greetz,
    Wouter

    Thanks for responding Wouter and I apologize for my late reply. Life throws some curves once in a while.

    I implemented your conditionals but when rendered, the recent articles is blank. I’m definitely not doing something right. Most likely I’m misunderstanding your use of the conditionals. Could you spare a little more time helping me with this please?

    Here is the code I used..

    <ul>
{exp:weblog:entries orderby="date" sort="desc" weblog="on-thewater|jdm-tackle-watch|guerilla-plugging|guts|bu-chan|green-tsuribito" dynamic="off"  limit="15" disable="pagination|custom_fields|categories|member_data|trackbacks"}

  {if weblog_short_name == 'on-thewater'}
    <li><a href="http://{title_permalink=on-the-water/blog}">{title}</a></li>
  {if:elseif weblog_short_name == 'jdm-tackle-watch'} 
  {if:elseif weblog_short_name == 'guerilla-plugging'} 
  {if:elseif weblog_short_name == 'guts'}  
  {if:elseif weblog_short_name == 'bu-chan'} 
  {if:elseif weblog_short_name == 'green-tsuribito'} 
 {/if}

{/exp:weblog:entries}  
</ul>


    Thanks for your time!
    Michael
