I'm trying to do a listing of all entries within certain categories grouped by Month. Here is the code I have:

It works if I only use the one category. If I try to add another category to the list I get weird results. I changed this line:
to this:
What is wrong with my code? A look here, shows what happens when I add the second category...see the extra list items? They shouldn't be there.

Looking at it further, it appears it is picking up entries from another of my categories. I Nothing shows up because those entries don't have ASINs and they shouldn't. None of the entries in the third category that are being picked up have secondary categories. Actually none of my entries have multiple categories so I don't know why it is trying to pick those entries up.

Any idea what could be happening?

I don't know if it matters or not, but did you try capitalizing OR?

You might want to try one of these code snippets.

This is Weekly (datebased) subsectioned by Category



Category subsectioned by Weekly (datebased)


I have tested both with the lastn= attribute and it seems to work.

If you wanted to include or exclude categories you might want to try the MTFilterCategories plugin. I have not tested including or excluding, so it might produce unexpected results.

Also I have yet used MTAmazon, so you might not get the result you require with these snippets.

hope this helps

t&e

I was able to get it to work by using the plugin MTCatEntries in place of the MTEntries tag. I don't know why the regular way didn't work, but at least I finally got it.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
