@dan LOAD MORE is sort of working now. What I have found is that when you load more posts, clicking on one of the now-visible posts will give you a “page not found” error. But if you expand the number of visible items on the blog page, one of the items that could not be found works fine. I still have a problem with my dimension table where an entire collection of items is not being displayed, but all of the other collections work just fine. ---

The projects I sent to Ben by email are now working for me again as well, including the pagination. However, I’ve just sent Ben another project directly by email which is unfortunately still showing a **Fatal Error** message. This error disappears, though, as soon as I disable the **Related Item**. So once again, thank you for the quick and solid support, and for the update. ---

> [@Pegasus](#): > > another project directly by email which is unfortunately still showing a **Fatal Error** message. This error disappears, though, as soon as I disable the **Related Item**. I tracked this down to malformed YAML front matter in a couple of your Markdown files. One of the description fields starts with a normal double quote but ends with a smart quote, so the front matter parser cannot read it. Related Items made the issue visible because it scans the other items in the same collection to find matches, so a single malformed item can trigger the error even when viewing a different page. We’ll tighten up the parser so it can recover from this specific quote mismatch, but correcting the front matter quotes in those Markdown files will also resolve the issue. Affected content files I found: - kochen-ist-leidenschaft.md (line 36) - kochen-leicht-gemacht.md (line 39) Both have `description.short` values that open with a normal quote `"` but close with a smart quote `“`, which makes the YAML front matter invalid. ---

I really can’t say thank you to @ben often enough. Little details like normal quotes `"` and smart quotes `“` are easy to overlook when you’ve been sitting in front of the screen all day — or, like me, if you simply had no idea there was even a difference ^^. You honestly can’t really see the difference in the inline Markdown editor in Elements. Hopefully, that kind of thing won’t happen as often in the future once the online editor is in place. Anyway, I’ve adjusted everything now, and it’s working again. ---

> [@handshaper](#): > > I still have a problem with my dimension table where an entire collection of items is not being displayed, but all of the other collections work just fine. This is due to some malformed frontmatter. Looking through the markdown files for the Q5 Series: I found an issue in **Q5-375C.md** : Indentation is broken in the `dimensions` block: ```yaml dimensions: title: "Q5-375C Center" height: "3.75\" / 95mm" base: "2.875\" / 73mm" area: "7.94in2 / 51cm2" ``` Two problems here: - `title:` is over-indented (8 spaces instead of 4) - `height:` has no indentation at all, so it’s parsed as a top-level key rather than part of `dimensions` It should match the pattern in the others: ```yaml dimensions: title: "Q5-375C Center" height: "3.75\" / 95mm" base: "2.875\" / 73mm" area: "7.94in2 / 51cm2" ``` Once you fix that the Q5 section will be populated. Let me know if that works for you 🙂 ---

Is it possible to create relationships between collections with the CMS **Studio** license? Here’s what I mean… Suppose we have two collections: - a “product” collection (with the title, image, and description properties) - a “details” collection (with the title, image, and description properties) What I’d like is to use the fields in the “product” collection to select items from the “details” collection (with the title or id property selected) so that they are displayed on the post page of the “product” collection. And obviously, the selected items from the “details” collection must also include the other properties, meaning that in an item from the “product” collection I can also display the contents of one or more items from the “details” collection. And then it would be nice to have at least a CMS component that allows data/content to be displayed conditionally, that is, based on the value of other properties. Is this feasible currently? If not, will it be possible in the near future? ---

Wow, that indeed did fix it. It’s intriguing that it used to work before, as I never noticed that this one was malformed. Thanks so much for tracking this down. Going forward, I will be more stringent checking the front matter. ---

@ben I have a question related to this, as I have been doing a lot of testing trying to get the problem resolved on multiple sites. From what I can tell, you have to use FOUR actual spaces, instead of a TAB that is set to FOUR spaces, correct? Which is what I tried in BBEdit, and that immediately broke the collection. UPDATE: _I think I finally figured out that I need to set BBEdit to AutoExpand Tabs, and then it will convert them to spaces. Seems to work when I test it._ [Next page](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/rapidweaver-elements-2-4-1-now-available/56252.md?page=2)
