Newbie Questions - http://canadacup.floorballcanada.com
Hello PHPWCMS Users
I have inherited a website designed in PHPWCMS. There are three different sites but the first one I am trying to learn is at http://canadacup.floorballcanada.com
I understand basic HTML and have learned a lot on my own in the past day or two. However I don't really understand how PHPWCMS displays the news articles and how I can control where they show up.
Take the index page for example at:
http://www.floorballcanada.com/canadacup/
- How do I get the news articles I have entered to show up at the top right hand column of this page? I would think this would happen in the templates section of the admin control but I'm not sure how I define where/how to display the news.
For ****, the news articles DO show up here:
http://floorballcanada.com/canadacup/in ... 14,0,0,1,0
But not at the top of the column as I would like.
- How can I create a page that would NOT have content in the middle but just provide a list of all of the news articles as the content? This would be considered a NEWS page.
- How can I include images in my news articles?
I really appreciate your help!
Thanks,
Juha

Hello Everyone,
As you may notice by checking out the site, I figured out how to make the News articles appear on the main page.
How do I get the news articles to appear at the top of the right hand side column?
I am still hoping to get some advice on how to create a "News" page as well.
Thanks!

Can someone PLEASE help me get the news articles to go to the TOP of the column on my pages? I don't understand how to do that.
See this:
http://floorballcanada.com/canadacup/in ... 11,0,0,1,0
The news is centered vertically in the middle of the page which looks horrible.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Pappnase,Pappnase wrote:hello
create an table for the left template row with align=top
Thanks for the response. Unfortunately I'm not sure what you mean... as the news content is in the RIGHT hand side of the template not in the LEFT hand side.
When I first tried to edit the template the RIGHT hand side content was COMPLETELY EMPTY. I created a new blank table there with align="top" property but it did nothing... I also changed the property of the left hand side table to include this alignment just in case but no luck.
Can you please help me out? Thanks so much in advance.
All the best,
Juha

If you view the source "rendered" you'll see this:
It needs to become this:
Also you are missing a closing javascript tag:
Should be:
Code: Select all
<TD width=200><BR><SPAN class=contentHead>Latest News</SPAN>
Code: Select all
<TD vAlign=top width=200><BR><SPAN class=contentHead>Latest News</SPAN>
Code: Select all
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript type=text/JavaScript>

{
window.open(aObj.href,aObj.target,"width="+w+",height="+h+",left=50,top=50,status=yes,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no");
return false;
}
<style type="text/css" media="all">

Hello,
Thanks to everyone for their help. I managed to figure out how to get the news articles to the top of the column on my own. I have yet to edit or add in the closing Javascript tag that was suggested in the previous post as I am not sure what it does.
As you know, I am new to PHP WCMS and I currently have a website with the news articles listed in the right column of each page on our website here: http://www.floorballcanada.com/canadacup/
(1) I am trying to find a way to get the news articles listed on a NEWS page where all of the news articles ever posted are listed in summary form for browsing. I would love to also include a photo with each news title as the author of the following website has done at International Diving Directory website: http://www.diving-industry.com/index.ph ... y_news_csc
Can anyone advise me on how I could set this up? I want to keep the latest articles posted on the right hand side of the site on all the regular pages.
(2) I am also hoping to include a large photo gallery on the website. Is there a way for me to use PHP WCMS to create a photo gallery with thumbnails and links to images? We have hundreds of photos.
Thanks,
Juha

Hi JuhaMikkola,
This is how I did the http://www.diving-industry.com/index.ph ... y_news_csc
At the admin section I created a category named: NEWS
Now at Articles under NEWS I did an article :
News 2006
And a html CONTENT TYPE with this code:
Now when you write a new article include in the „keywords“ your „keyword“ i.e. „news2006“ at the example above.
Check this link for the {RELATED_SUMMARY} replacement tag
http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.p ... tedsummary
I hope I could help
