Re: news posting
Hey is there a way to just show the subject as a link, and have like 5 news articles shown at a time by subject so people can click on them and be taken the the news article?

Re: news posting
Yeah that's really what I'm looking for too.
I tried changing HTML Code:
to HTML Code:
in modules/news_management/func.php as suggested in a previous post, but it had no effect! |

Re: news posting
yeah, cause i mean if you have a huge news update it looks really bad in the little box. It'd be nice to just have headlines.

Follow the message #17 then you'll get what you want. That's how I did it, and works like magic. No need for BIG codes! find: /today_news.tpl (from your admin panel) Quote:

Re: news posting
I did the #17 mod and it works fine and cleans up the box nicely for long news messages.Just need to figure how to list several messages
I was a little confused with the news system but I think it works like this. Create a news letter in the lists section to mail out to anyone who subscribes and then create a message that displays on the site. There is a tick box in the news list "show messages in site news" and another tick box in "messages" "show as news" but things don't seem to work quite like they should. I'd of thought that just create a news item and then tick a box whether to display on the site would of been fine with no need for a separate message section but maybe I'm missing something ??

Just a side note that this will not work if you have HTML code in your news message body. Use plain text instead !

Re: news posting
Has anybody managed to resolve the issues of not being able to add multiple subject headings or even multiple news items to the main today_news.tpl?
I tried doing a [section loop] .... [/section] but this didn't work. I've been looking through the php files but can't seem to find what I need to resolve this ( although not a php coder as such ) Also my news doesn't display the send_date in this code: {$news_message.date|date_format:$config.Appearance .date_format} If I change it to date it displays the current date??! I would like to be able to display the news the same as mrkenzie but after working on it for two days I have to put up my hand and ask for help
