Problem trying to show ArticlePages in HomePage

31 July 2008 at 11:01am
Hi, I'm new to silverstripe. I need to finish a small setup for tomorrow and I'm having problems showing the ArticlePages in the homepage . I'm following the article :
http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=tutorial:2-extending-a-basic-site
exactly like it's there.
I checked and the site is reading my HomePage.php from code HomePage.ss and the and Article related pages (I can create them and see them in the Article (News) section).
I also tried just echoing a value from the HomePage.php but still blank.
The code follows:HomePage.ss
//
<% control LatestNews %>
<li class="newsDateTitle"><a href="$Link" title="Read more on "{$Title}"">$Title</a></li>
<li class="newsDateTitle">$Date.Nice</li>
<li class="newsSummary">$Content.FirstParagraph<a href="$Link" title="Read more on "{$Title}"">Read more >></a></li>
<% end_control %>
//HomePage.php
//
class HomePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {function LatestNews($num=2) {
$news = DataObject::get_one("ArticleHolder");
return ($news) ? DataObject::get("ArticlePage", "ParentID = $news->ID", "Date DESC", "", $num) : false;
}

does the php error log contain anything useful?
Otherwise I would just strip the PHP down to see what its failing by removing things like the ParentID= bit then the sort or try just a return DataObject::get("ArticlePage");
