Reported on Movable Type 5

I have paged archive plugin install and some tags for date has inserted..is that the problem for second one?
no body here??please some one answer me.i want list of 7 entries in each category i used code in movablet type documantion but nothing happend??
Happy New Year!
Regarding your 1st point, what you do is right.
Try to reverse the order of the lastn and category attributes and also make sure that the category label is correctly provided.
Do you have a category called "#3"? It might be that the "#" symbol confuses movable type. Not sure, but after first reversing the order of the 2 parameters that I've mentioned above, if the problem is not solved, you may like to try to temporary rename the "#3" category to something else and see if it works that way.
As for the 2nd matter, I wasn't able to understand very well what the problem is. The use of the paged archive plugin doesn't have any negative impact, so you shouldn't be concerned about it.
Kind Regards,
Mihai Bocsaru

Realy tnx Mihai
i tryed all the ways and tryed and tryed but when i define category no output...
any advice Mihai??
second problem solved when i removed some tags that intorduced in paged archive
You're welcome!
Well, it cannot be that when you specify the category the filtering doesn't work. If it doesn't maybe your installation is missing some files, or something.
If you provide me access via email to your movable type admin I could take a look and see. Just tell me the template name.
Mihai tnx to you problem solved
i figured out that i have to mention category name not basename
i just inserted category base name and nothing happend but when i put category name problem solved..
realy tnx
happy xmas
Yeap, that is what I've assumed in my first feedback to you above and that's why I've clearly mentioned about "category label" in the phrase:
"make sure that the category label is correctly provided."
Cheers,
Mihai
