On the Categories templates, I want to put a <%if XXX%> around "Related Categories" so it only appears on the first page. What soet of variable can I use that wil do that?

Sorry, I'm not really sure what you mean by that. How are you using the related categories? The 'yahoo' mode, or the regular one where it's in a separate loop?

Hi-

I use "regular" Related....

What I want to do is do an <%if "this is the first page"%>Related Categoriies Loop and stuff<%endif%> so Related Categories only appears on Page 1...

I was going to suggest that you use the paging hash, but there's the problem that there's currently no way to know if the hash exists or not. Otherwise, you could do something like:
Code:
<%if not defined paging or paging.current_page == 1%>...<%endif%>
I'll have to talk to Jason about what we can do about that. Until then, you're out of luck!

This should work.
Code:
<%if paging.current_page <= 1%>
