Hi,

after more than 15 EE 1 Websites I’m struggling with a strange problem and I’m not able to solve this by myself this evening:

EE 1.6.9, B 20100430

I’ve set on the category trigger in global weblog preferences. My template has an entries-loop and a catagory filter. The category filtering is working as expected (and done several times before) but without the category trigger word the loop does’nt show anything:

<div id="filter-location">
  <form id="nav-filter" action="/" class="clearfix">
    
      <label for="filter">Filter:</label>
      <select name="filter" id="filter">
        <option value="/performances/" selected="selected">All</option>
        <option value="{path='performances/cat/my_cat1/'}">my_cat1/option>
        <option value="{path='performances/cat/my_cat2/'}">my_cat2</option>
      </select>
    
  </form>            
</div>

{exp:weblog:entries weblog='performances' show_future_entries='yes' status='open' orderby='date' sort='asc'}
  <div class="entry teaser clearfix">
    <h3><a href="http://{url_title_path=performances/details/}">{title}</a></h3>
<p>  </div> <!-- /entry --><br />
{/exp:weblog:entries}

• /performances/ does’nt work (does’nt show any entry)
• /performances/cat/my_cat1 works (show categorized entries with ‘my_cat1’)
• /performances/some_slug works (shows all entries)
• /performances/details/url_title works (with another template)

It’s curious because this code is working in other projects. Entries are shown without the dynamic=‘off’ param.

What’s the problem?

Ok, I’ve got it.

I have a pages entry with a pages uri called ‘performances’. So the pages URI collides with the template-group name ‘performances’ and therefore the entries loop does not show anything.

Glad you figured it out. Feel free to start a new thread if you have any more questions.
