Section/Category Help
It appears VB won't let me setup the sections/categories to work how I want, so I'm hoping someone here can either tell me what I'm doing wrong or possibly give me another work around.
I had it set up with sections, sub-sections, and then categories within the sub-sections. This worked perfect EXCEPT that when you clicked on a section in the sections widget it would bring up a blank page saying "There are no articles in this section." Once you clicked on a sub-section in the widget it would pull up the list of articles. No one likes blank pages, and for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to get the articles assigned to the sub-sections to also show in on the main section page. Why can't one select multiple sections/sub-sections for articles like you can with categories? For that matter, why don't articles in sub-sections automatically get included into the parent section? So then I got the [S]not so[/S] brilliant idea to restructure everything. I dropped down to two sections with no sub-sections, figuring I'd do categories and sub-categories to eliminate this problem. Well, as I soon found out - you can't create sub-categories! Frustrating? YES! My goal here is two things... 1. No blank Section pages 2. No ungodly long section or category list widgets My original structure looked like this: 2 sections - articles and reviews 14 sub-sections - types of articles and reviews (i.e. Optic Reviews) 50 categories - specific types of articles and reviews (i.e. Binocular Reviews, Spotting Scope Reviews, Optic Accessory Reviews, etc.) |
