Hello,
I am not sure if this is the same question that Florian asked. If so
(and I suspect it is), I apologize. If not, do you have any idea how
to do this?
The site that I am working on is an archive of a local newsletter.
Every article is categorized by author (one or more), issue, topic
(one or more), and location (one or more).
See for example:
http://www.alientimes.org/Main/TsukubaRinRinRoad
Here is the category structure.
Top Category

I have three "Topics" that I would like to provide specialized
category pages for: Tourism, Events, Gardens. I would like the
category pages for these "Topics" to have a full list of all articles
in that category AND a list of articles listed by Location and
formatted to show the Location and then the articles.
Here is an image of what I want to do.
==================
Tourism Category Page
Bando City
Tourist Spot in Bando 1
Tourist Spot in Bando 2
Daigo Town
Tourist Spot in Daigo 1
Tourist Spot in Daigo 2
Kasama City
Tourist Spot in Kasama 1
Tourist Spot in Kasama 2
Full List of all Tourism Articles (this part I know how to do)
Tourist Spot in Bando 1
Tourist Spot in Bando 2
Tourist Spot in Daigo 1
Tourist Spot in Daigo 2
Tourist Spot in Kasama 1
Tourist Spot in Kasama 2
==================
See for example:
http://www.alientimes.org/Category/Tourism
Right now, I am doing this by hand, but that means that every time a
new location appears, I have to update the Events, Gardens, and
Tourism pages. If possible, I would like to automate this task.
I have tried using page text variables and customized pagelist
templates, but I have not been successful so far. If you have any
idea how I might automate this task please let me know.
Thank you!
Shaney.
