Hi,
Can I use smart IF-tag to detect if the article view is used? I want to set a caption in the intro text to be visible in category listings, but I do not want it to show in the article view...

Any ideas? I want something like this:



{if not Articleview}

{$CAPTION}

{/if}


With kind regards,
- Johan.

Hi Johan,

No, that's not possible, because the Smarty code is executed only on saving the article.

What you need is something dynamically that executes every time the article is loaded on the site. For this purpose you would need to write a custom Joomla plug-in. Plug-ins are triggered every time an article is show on the site.

best.

Hi Johan,

Can you not easily accomplish this by hiding the Intro of the Joomla article in the article view itself? (standard Joomla option).
This way your intro (what is shown in category blog layout) can be anything you want.

Patrick
Please read the F2C documentation before asking questions! Thank you if you've done so ;)
