Thread

Hello,

I’m ran into a strange situation for which I don’t see any info in the docs. I have a url structure like this:

http://mysite.com/mychannel/category/music/2011/07/22

I have some test entries with entry dates and expiration dates set.

When using the standard embed without “starts_on” or “stop_before” parameters, it seems EE is automatically filtering out the entries by the date in the URL. It was my understanding that something like this would only work with the Archives tag, not with the channel module tag. Here’s code I’m using:

{exp:channel:entries channel="event" show_future_entries="yes" show_expired_entries="no"}

{title}

{/exp:channel:entries}

Each date url is pulling out entries that start on the date in the URL, like what the Archives module would do.

I don’t see anything in the docs that says this is the intended behavior for the channel module… but I could be wrong. Is this a feature, or a bug?

I’ve tried disabling extensions.

Thanks in advance for your help.

That’s default behavior for the exp:channel:entries tag as well.  See:

Thank you Nick, that’s a very helpful resource.

Steven,

Note, you can disable the Channel ENtries Tag being affected by the URL by using the parameter dynamic=“no” if you wish to override anything
