Hi , I have created a few categories on my blog and assigned articles to each.
I have a index template which embeds a left_section template. The left_section template displays the category links.
The issue I am facing is that clicking on any of the category links displays all entries instead of displaying the entries for that category only.
Below are code snippets for the index and left_section templates. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

Hi, Damn!
A few questions:
1) What version and build are you on?
2) Are you using category names in links, or IDs?
3) Can you provide a link to the site so we can see this in action?

Hi Lisa,
-version: 1.5.2, Build:20070302
-Using ID’s
-The blog is still internal , so unfortunately can’t send a link.
Another thing though, the same templates work correctly on another windows machine…So I am thinking if it could have something to do with PHP build on this machine?
Thanks

Can you tell me the link, everything the domain. Ie: index.php/???/??? etc? Include the index.php for me in this case please.

I am not sure if I got your question right…so please let me know if I am completely out of line here 😊
The url for index template is
<a href="http://new.fmr.com:90/ee/index.php/jurrienblog/index">http://new.fmr.com:90/ee/index.php/jurrienblog/index</a>The url for various category links are
<a href="http://new.fmr.com:90/ee/index.php/jurrienblog/C1/">http://new.fmr.com:90/ee/index.php/jurrienblog/C1/</a>
<a href="http://new.fmr.com:90/ee/index.php/jurrienblog/C2/">http://new.fmr.com:90/ee/index.php/jurrienblog/C2/</a>

Finally, I did get this to work
Changing the following line in my index template did the trick. Basically had to remove the category_group parameter. Have no idea why that worked because the category group for this blog does have an id of 2.
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="{my_weblog}" orderby="date" sort="desc" limit="10"
rdf="off" paginate="bottom" disable="member_data|trackbacks" category_group="2"}to

Glad you got that sorted out, Daman. Thank you for posting the solution!
