News template

[santscho]

Bens tutorial is great. Everything works perfectly. But please read and try...

For my test, I have 4 News: 1 news (Dezember) and 3 archive news (September, Oktober, Novmber)

In the following two parts between the dashed lines, you can find 2 URL. Please open them and just watch the pages without following any of the news link. It looks okay.

-----------------------------------------------------
http://web179.pluto.ibone.ch/zuecchin-news.phtml

News page with the news (left) and links to archive news (right)

Article alias: zuecchin-news

Left Column
- CP NEWS | Archive exclude
- Archiv: news-archiv
- News article: zuecchin-news

Right Column
Left Column
- CP NEWS | Archive only
- Archiv: news-archiv
- News article: zuecchin-news

-----------------------------------------------------
http://web179.pluto.ibone.ch/news-archiv.phtml

News archive page with the archive news (left) and links to news (right)

Article alias: news-archiv

Left Column
- CP NEWS | Archive only
- Archiv: news-archiv
- News article: zuecchin-news

Right Column
Left Column
- CP NEWS | Archive exclude
- Archiv: news-archiv
- News article: news-archiv

-----------------------------------------------------


What I want but it's not working:
-----------------------------------------------------
zuecchin-news.phtml
Click on december news left: opens the news detail in the same article in the left column. The links right for archive news should not change.
Click on september news right: opens the news detail in the news archive article in the left column. The links right for news should not change.
-----------------------------------------------------
news-archiv.phtml
Click on december news left: opens the news detail in the same article in the left column. The links right for news should not change.
Click on december news right: opens the news detail in the news article in the left column. The links right for news should not change.
-----------------------------------------------------

Please click on any news and you will see, that the news article opens in all news-CP's in the article. Any solutions for that problem? What did I wrong? Maybe News-Guru-Ben knows?

Thanx a lot

Hi Everyone,

It's been a while since i've been on here, it's good to see the familiar faces are still here.

I was wondering if there has been any more updates to the news section, after a search i haven't found any information on pagination. I have a friend i set up the news module for a while ago and as you can imagine it is getting quie long on one page now. I have updated to the latest version but am having no joy with the obvious.

Kind regards
Ben

Hi Ben,
good to see you "back"
As far as I know the news section hasn't undergone any development (especially pagination would have been nice) by now, but I think (=hope) that there will be some movement over the next time.
The Blog module and other nice ones are about to be renewed (not to mention the enhanced fck- editor) and there is a wiki online now - so there will be progress

Hi Claus,

Thought you may be one of the first to respond. Good to hear from you and see your still very much involved in phpwcms.

That is a pity. I was hoping for a quick fix on the pagination so i didn't have to move any of my friends articles around.

I saw the wiki and looked up the news section, when I saw information on it i thought great! then started reading the information and it seemed familiar. It is the information I wrote all that time ago. I wasn't much help to myself as i knew what i was telling myself.

Yes it works - but at the moment pure classic pagination - no date based.

Hi to all, I have come to see what is new on phpwcms... and I want to use the news module but I have a problem:

I have done all like in the tutorial and all is fine but when I click on Read more... is opening a blank page not the page with the selected news... any ideea why?

[culda_a]

well I have found that the alis in the news must ne in 1 word and is working now..... for me at least.

How do I make to have 2 columns with news ?

also how can I make a link to archive news? and where is the archive?

Is there a way to select only a few selected news (from the news page) that I want to put on home page like a show content RT?

Is there a way to select only a few selected news (from the news page) that I want to put on home page like a show content RT?

That's easy. Set a tag in each news you want to publish on your homepage. For example: featurenews

Then create a news contentpart on the home page and insert your tag "featurenews" in the tag field. Phpwcms will only publish featurenews.
