AZ show_empty not working

PDM 4 Apr 2012 15:55 problem, complete

Hi Low,

I'm using Low Alphabet 1.08 and the following code 

  
 {exp:low_alphabet:azlist channel="vendors" alpha_field="{biz_city}" show_empty="no"} 
   {if count == 1}<div id="alphafilter"><h3>Browse by City</h3> <a href="/firewood/all/">All</a>{/if} 
   <a href="{path="firewood/{low_alphabet_url}"}/">{low_alphabet_label}</a>  
   {if count == total_results}</div>{/if} 
 {/exp:low_alphabet:azlist}


but the show_empty parameter is behaving weirdly. I don't have any entries for the letters Q, X, Y & Z. The A-Z list correctly leaves out X & Y, but Q & Z are displayed. I checked the exp_channel_data table directly just to make sure I'm not overlooking any Q or Z entries, and there really are none.

Any thoughts on a fix?

Thanks!

Paula

    Hi Paula,

    First off, the alpha_field parameter should contain the short name of the field, without curly brackets, so: 

    {exp:low_alphabet:azlist channel="vendors" alpha_field="biz_city" show_empty="no"}


    Can you try that and see if that solves the issue?
