    Sorry, but I have spent HOURS looking for a solution and just don’t understand what the problem is...

    my [+summary+] tag refuses to pull content from my documents. I have two sites that I’m developing and both have the same sample content from install. One shows summary content, the other will not, even when I use identical calls with Ditto.

    The big difference is the broken page is using ditto 2.0.2 and Jot 1.1.2, the other is using ditto 1.0.2 and Jot 1.0

    I’m starting to lose it.... help? embarrassed

    [[Ditto? &startID=`2` &summarize=`2` &total=`20` &commentsChunk=`Comments` &tpl=`ditto_blog`  &paginate=`1` &extenders=`dateFilter` &paginateAlwaysShowLinks=`1` &tagData=`documentTags`]]


    Is there something here that is knocking out my [+summary+] ??

        I’d been on the ditto page - and thought I looked everywhere! But no!

        &extenders=`summary`

        soooo simple. but elusive. Thank you (he said through tears of joy).
