I just updated to v1.8.2 and a significant problem have arisen with my connected files as far as the {{logentrylist}} variable is concerned.
Each author on my site has been given a page of their own that lists only posts made by them. I'm using the variable syntax {{logentrylist author}} to denote where the list of their entries should be placed (where "author" is replaced by the author's username). The problem is the {{logentrylist}} variable isn't generating a list.
- the connected files are properly chmod'ed.
- both Entry List Link Template templates are filled out correctly.
- other variables used on the connected pages work just fine.
- the exact same method worked fine when I had v1.3.1 installed.
As an example, I have an author named "Acton Bjorn" who has their own page (http://www.sllab.net/arslonga/designers/actonbjorn.html). In the right column on that page, under the heading "by this designer" I've inserted the variable {{logentrylist Acton Bjorn}} ... but yet the author's posts are not generating when the connected files are rebuilt. The files are rebuilding correctly, but the logentrylist is blank.
I'm wondering if this is a bug in regards to a space being used in the author's name? I've tried inserting the html entity for space and non-breaking space into the name in the variable (see code examples below), but then then the gm variable itself shows up as text on the page.
If anyone has any ideas for me to try so I can get this to work, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'd hate to have to revert to the earlier version of Greymatter I was using (v1.3.1), but this is a vital element of my site, and I need to get it working.
Thanks in advance for your help!
