This bug has been fixed

Description

I added a ListPages module to my side bar, but whenever the url is a page in any category, the module does not show up.

SORRY THIS IS NOT A BUG! > > > BUT A MISSING CATEGORY="*" SELECTION
MY FAULT …

How to Reproduce

Take a look at the main page at http://biblio.wikidot.com; notice the "Ultimos acrescimos" item on the side bar. Now, go to, say, http://biblio.wikidot.com/autor:curt-nimuendaju. See what I mean? The ListPages results do not show :(
Anybody else had the same issue?

==> I have tested this with other attributes - it is the tag="…" attribute which causes the bug" Helmuti_pdorf

Anyone else having the same problem? This happens with IE, but I have not tested it with other browsers.

Looks like you have More than one module in the page than?

Have a look at the documentation - I think this is the reason for such behaviour:

http://www.wikidot.com/doc:listpages-module

You should use the prefix attribute: urlAttrPrefix="prefixn.nn"

Thanks, Helmut, for your reply. Unfortunately, the problem does not seem to be the one you suggest, as I only have one ListPage module in such cases (the one located on the side bar). By the way, I am using the Clean theme (just in case that information turns out to be relevant).
Again, thanks a lot. Any additional suggestions would be much appreciated!

I see only following code on nav:side:

+++  Últimos acréscimos
[[size 80%]]
[[module ListPages tag="_obra" limit="4" date="@URL"]]
%%linked_title%%
%%date|%e %b %y %%
[[/module]][[/size]]

The problem could be in

• the date=""@URL" - I have no idea which "url" ( means parent-page for the /date/yyyy.mm" is taken on a catgeory "autor:" page -
• the missing line feed after the /module - before the /size tag -..

The http://biblio.wikidot.com/autores page works with the date-url… but the nav:side page itself not.

There is a message in the ListPages module:

The URLs need to be created manually at this point. ? ? ?
( I do not understand where to create such urls… and I do not believe that you have created for every page such url…

I would try to change the date attribute ( why a date selection by year / month?) to another "order" like:

• order="dateCreatedDesc" ( default) or
• order="dateEditedDesc"

AND: => I would use the urlAttrPrefix="prefixnavside"

On the other hand - if the date="@URL" is the reason than this could be really a bug ? !

EDIT: I tested all my proposals - nothing works! —- this could be a bug
( easy to test - out the code in your side bar - select a tag which is used and have a look!)

EDIT2: I made a test without tag="…" and this works!
EDIT3: I copied it to the "pro" tester site as a bug…

Thank you very much for figuring out where the problem is, and for submitting this bug to the pro site. I hope there is an easy — and quick — solution for it.
By the way, I removed the date="@URL" thingy; it was unnecessary anyway.

Service is my success.

Apparently, it is also your middle name ;)
Again, thank you so very much, Helmut, for all your help!

SORRY THIS IS NOT A BUG! BUT A MISSING CATEGORY="*" SELECTION
MY FAULT …

Your compliment was too early… this was only a missing category="*" selection!

I stopped and closed the bug ticket on the pro site.

Please, excuse my mistake and i think - my service is sometimes not the best… :(

regards
Helmut
