Conversion Error? Can't Post
So far so good...BUT...

The files that utilized external links are not presenting properly in the index files (global).

see:

http://www.lasvegas-tsg.com/news/publish/Sports/index.shtml

The "visit website" link is correct - however, it is in the incorrect row.

I've looked at the template file - and it appears to be correct - but I'm still getting used to the new system.

Any help would be appriciated

- Mike

OBTW: Do I edit the admin templates to get the admin screens to "View Website >>" link to a shtml file? It keeps looking for html - but - my default is shtml.

Mike, can you post the code that's in your <!-- tempalteCell : article.row -->? That will help us figure out why that link is appearing up by the breadcrumb.

Hm, that's odd...it shouldn't look for anything, just point right to your Publish URL, as defined in Admin > Publishing. You're getting a 404 error?

Theo:

I haven't made any changes yet - so it's from the converted detault template...

<!-- templatecell : articleRow -->
<span class="summary_breadcrumb"><a name="$article.num$"><!--#include virtual="$published.categoryBreadcrumb.webpath$" --></a></span><br>
<span class="summary_title"><a href="$published.articlePage.url$">$article.title$</a></span><br>
<span class="summary">$article.summary$</span><br>
<span class="summary_date">$article.date$<br clear="all"><br></span>
<!-- templateIf : $article.attachments$ ne "" -->
<div class="summary_attachments"> <b style="color: #666666;">Download attachment(s):</b> $article.attachments$

<!-- templatecell : article.attachments.row -->[ <a href="$file.webUrl$">$file.title$</a> ] <!-- /templatecell : article.attachments.row -->
</div>
<!-- /templateIf -->

<!-- templateIf : $article.externalLink$ ne "" -->[ <a href="$article.externalLink$">Visit&nbsp;Website</a> ] <!-- /templateIf -->

<!-- /templatecell : articleRow -->

</div>





<!-- templateIf : $articleList$ eq "" -->
<span class="summary">Sorry, no articles were found.</span><br>
<!-- /templateIf -->


<!-- templateCell : pageDefault.embeddedMedia -->

<!-- templateIf : $file.caption$ ne '' -->
<table border=0 cellspacing=2 cellpadding=0 width=$file.width$ align=$file.align$>
<tr><td><img src="$file.webUrl$" height="$file.height$" width="$file.width$" border=1></td></tr>
<tr><td class="image_caption">$file.caption$</td></tr>
</table>
<!-- /templateIf -->

<!-- templateIf : $file.caption$ eq '' -->
<table border=0 cellspacing=2 cellpadding=0 width=$file.width$ align=$file.align$>
<tr><td><img src="$file.webUrl$" height="$file.height$" width="$file.width$" border=1></td></tr>
</table>
<!-- /templateIf -->

<!-- /templateCell : pageDefault.embeddedMedia -->

Re: View Web site - no - no 404 error, just getting the file structure listing of the directory. I have to type in "index.shtml" then I can "view the web site"

Ah, I see, it's not that it's up in the wrong place - it's down two lines past the summary, and without a break before the next article!

I think you'll get what you want if you move the external link code up above the article date and add a break tag, so this would be your new articleRow code:


<!-- templatecell : articleRow -->

<span class="summary_breadcrumb"><a name="$article.num$"><!--#include virtual="$published.categoryBreadcrumb.webpath$" --></a></span><br>
<span class="summary_title"><a href="$published.articlePage.url$">$article.title$</a></span><br>
<span class="summary">$article.summary$</span><br>

<!-- templateIf : $article.externalLink$ ne "" -->[ <a href="$article.externalLink$">Visit&nbsp;Website</a> ] <!-- /templateIf --><br>

<span class="summary_date">$article.date$<br clear="all"><br></span>

<!-- templateIf : $article.attachments$ ne "" -->
<div class="summary_attachments"> <b style="color: #666666;">Download attachment(s):</b> $article.attachments$
<!-- templatecell : article.attachments.row -->[ <a href="$file.webUrl$">$file.title$</a> ] <!-- /templatecell : article.attachments.row -->
</div>
<!-- /templateIf -->

<!-- /templatecell : articleRow -->

Hope that helps! If you need anything else, don't hesitate to let us know.
