I'm not sure the answers I'm sending from my email is working so I'm
reposting here on google groups.
In my case I wanted to get something like this:
<h2>January 2008</h2>
<ul>
<li>Post name</li>
<li>Post name</li>
</ul>
<h2>December 2007</h2>
<ul>
<li>Post name</li>
<li>Post name</li>
</ul>
I can't figure out how to do it the way your are saying. I thought
about doing:
{% for entry in monts %}
{% ifchanged %}<h2>{{ entry.pub_date|date:"F Y" }}</h2>{%
endifchanged %}
<ul>
<li>
<a href="{{ entry.get_absolute_url }}" title="Read the
article titled {{ entry.title }}">{{ entry.title }}</a><span> on
{{ entry.pub_date|date:"l jS \o\f F Y" }}</span>
</li>
</ul>
{% endfor %}
but that added <ul></ul> for every post like:
<ul><li>Post</li></ul>
<ul><li>Post</li></lu>
