Heja,

You can replace the code in the posts.php controller like this:

// get all posts
  $posts = $page->children()
                ->visible()
                ->filterBy('category', 'some-category')
                ->flip();

I have a blog page with all posts and an other blog overview page with a specific category. If i do this in the controller posts.php, then i will change it for all.

How can i handle this in the templates/posts.php https://github.com/ausminternet/blogprint/blob/master/site/templates/posts.php), that i have the option to change it or preasign it for each blog?

Obviously, both blog pages then use the same controller and the same template. Then you would have to use an if-statement in your controller that checks which page you are on and then filter depending on that, something like:

if($page->uid() == 'normal-blog') {
  $posts= $page->children()
                ->visible()
                ->flip();
} else if($page->uid() == 'filtered-blog') {
  $posts = $page->children()
                ->visible()
                ->filterBy('category', 'some-category')
                ->flip();
}

it seems that the blogprint-plugin dont support an other blog overview page (like wordpress). All tag-archiv oder category-archiv and other problems doesn’t work! :confused:
