I am learning my way around Umbraco, but I've been stuck on one particular issue. I would like to show the list of all the blog posts in the sidebar, and I am pretty sure that just fixing the following XSLT will do the trick.
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/umbBlog//umbBlogPost [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">
This returns the list of the all blogs posts when I on the homepage of the site, but not on any of the child pages. Is there a way to fix this?
There are 2 ways you can do this, both require editing a template/XSLT.
1. In the template "umbBusinessHomepage.master" find the <umbraco:Macro Alias="umbBusinessFrontpageBlog"> tag and change "numberOfItems" to something ridiculously high - say 9999.
2. In the XSLT file "umbBusinessFrontpageBlog.xslt" (the one which I think you are referring too). Find the line with "<xsl:if test="position() <= $numberOfItems">" and remove it. You'll need to also remove the closing </xsl:if> tag too.

Hi Pavel,

Good luck!
Cheers, Lee.
I didn't forget about this post, just haven't had the time to reply.
I don't think I phrased my question very well. Take a look at the structure that gets generated http://i.imgur.com/qzvr2.png
As you can see, the actual blog posting go into subfolders. I actually ended up doing the following, and it seems to work.
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::* [@level=1]/umbBlog//umbBlogPost [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">
I would love to hear of a better of doing this
is working on a reply...
