    I have a very strange issue and can't figure out what's happening.

    I have upgraded a website from 2.2 to 2.3

    Everything is working fine, except the home-page. This is a symlink to a resource below, a blog (articles). I do get the blog, but not in the style it was before the upgrade. When I change the symlink into a weblink then the page is showing good, but then you see the complete URL and I don't want that.

    I'm getting crazy about this. I have no idea what happened. Is this a bug with articles?

    I will now put back the back-up with 2.2 and start the process step by step over again to see where it goes wrong.

    Update
    ------
    So, I started again. When I do the upgrade everything is working fine even with the upgrade to 2.3 done.

    But as soon as I save the resource with the symlink everything changes again and the result of my design is changed.

    Is there something changing to the symlink property by upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3? I don't understand why the symlink is not working properly.

    Update
    ------
    It seems like the symlink is loading the default chunk from the articles (sample.ArticleRowTpl) instead of the chunk I created and pointed to in the articles resource. When I go directly to the resource (so not throught the symlink) then everything is working fine. Very strange or am I missing something????

      I solved the problem by adding "&container" to the Articles snipped. I don't know why this was not necessary in the past, and now with the upgrade it's necessary, or at least it solves my problem. Very strange.

      [[Articles? &container=`24`]]
