Yes, you are right. URL is the same as the one you wrote above.

I am trying to create simple news via list/detail functionality. List page is showing correctly, but when clicking through each item the detail page shows nothing. Links are generated correctly I believe, they are working for each new item I add and click on through listing page.

Here is my template code for individual item dogadjaj.html

Code

<div class="article">
<div class="article-meta">
<p>Dodano dana <span class="meta-time"><perch:content id="news_date" type="date" label="Datum" format="d m Y"></perch:content></span> u <span class="meta-category">aktualnostima</span></p>
</div>
<h2 class="article-title"><perch:content id="news_title" type="text" label="Naslov Događaja" title></h2>
<perch:blocks label="Sadržaj događaja">
<perch:block type="text" label="Paragraf teksta">
<p class="article-paragraph">
<perch:content id="news_paragraph" type="text" label="Paragraf">
</p>
</perch:block>
<perch:block type="doubleimage" label="Dvije slike">
<div class="article-images">
<div class="article-image"><img src="<perch:content id="news_images_one" type="image" crop="true" width="320" height="320" label="Slika 1">" alt=""></div>
<div class="article-image"><img src="<perch:content id="news_images_two" type="image" crop="true" width="320" height="320" label="Slika 2">" alt=""></div>
</div>

<perch:block type="image" label="Jedna slika">
<div class="article-image-single"><img src="<perch:content id="news_image" type="image" width="640" label="Slika">" alt=""></div>
</perch:block>
<perch:block type="attachments" label="Preuzimanja">

</perch:repeater>
</ul>
</perch:block>
</perch:blocks>
<perch:content id="news_slug" for="news_title" type="slug" suppress>
<perch:content id="news_listing_image" type="image" crop="true" width="320" height="320" label="Slika za listu događanja" supress>

This is the list template lista_dogadjanja.html

Code

<div class="article-listing">
<div class="article-listing-text">
<span class="article-listing-date"><perch:content id="news_date" type="date"></span>
<h3><perch:content id="news_title" type="text" label="Naslov Događaja"></h3>
<p class="article-paragraph">
<perch:content id="news_paragraph" type="text" label="Paragraf" words="18" append="...">
</p>
<a href="dogadjaj.php?s=<perch:content id="news_slug" type="slug" />" class="main-cta article-cta">Pročitaj Više</a>
</div>
<div class="article-listing-image">
<img src="<perch:content id="news_listing_image" type="image" crop="true" width="320" height="320" label="Slika za listu događanja">" alt="">
</div>

And two relevant pages to display the content. First to display the listing.

dogadjanja.php

PHP

<div column="8">
<div class="article">
<h2 class="article-title text-center">
Zadnja Događanja
</h2>
<?php
perch_content_create('Događanja', array(
'template' => 'dogadjaj.html',
'multiple' => true,
'edit-mode' => 'listdetail',
));
perch_content_custom('Događanja', array(
'template' => 'lista_dogadjanja.html',
));
?>
</div>
</div>

And the relevant part for single item.

dogadjaj.php

PHP

<div column="8">
<?php
perch_content_custom('Događanja', array(
'page' => '/dogadjanja.php',
'template' => 'dogadjaj.html',
'filter' => 'slug',
'match' => 'eq',
'value' => perch_get('s'),
'count' => 1,
));
?>
</div>

Besides the above issue, one thing I noticed when creating new items/events is that upon save it doesn't save all block items. For example I added three paragraphs and one image via blocks, only one paragraph gets saved. Only after I create un-saved items again and press save they are saved properly.

This is basically the default behaviour for each new item/event I add.

Hi all,

Going to build my first site for a client with Perch, just wanted to ask for an opinion about what is the correct way to do things in Perch.

I've used CouchCMS in the past a few times, so I have a basic understanding how Perch works, cause both CMS are fairly similar in how they do things.

For the site in question I need a simple news section. Should I use blog app for that or list/detail pattern? What are the advantages of blog app over list/detail pattern?

I am mostly interested in displaying latest news on home page or in sidebar for example. Is filtering/sorting easier with blog app because I assume that it would need additional work done to setup correctly with list/detail pattern.

Thx
