{TEASER_EX} Replacement tag v1.90 - 10.1.2007

Post custom hacks and enhancements for phpwcms here only. Maybe some of these things will be included in official release later.

Hi dinnocon

well it's not similar ... but you can use the phpwcms built-in teaser content part..

have to say that I'm using TeaserEx with 1.3.3 if it helps....PM me if you need a hand

On that note - I need some help.

I'm trying to display all articles so using the TeaserEx RT without a category alias and things dont work....anyone help?

Structure is:-

- Home (Cat)
-- Welcome (Cat)
---Article1
-- About (Cat)
---Article2
-- Contact Us (Cat)
---Article3

I want to display content from Article1, Article2, Article3 but keep getting an error.

To make clear:-

{TEASER_EX:|-1:-1:default|ASC:0::1::sideMenu.tmpl:-1::0:0:-1:0:vert::off}

as I am following the advice on the generator (http://www.kmedv.at/wcms/index.php?teaser_ex_generator):-
Number of Articles: -1 for all articles from the category

To display articles regardless of category leave Category Alias empty and set the Number of Articles to display
Thanks!

FIXED/SOLVED

{TEASER_EX:%|-1:-1:default|ASC:0::1::sideMenu.tmpl:-1::0:0:-1:0:vert::off}

Add % instead of category name so the RT uses the LIKE function.

Back Again...

Just wondering whether you can order eacxh article by the order in which the article's category is in the backend?

I guess it would mean using a table join with the sql query...

something along the lines of

phpwcms_article.article_id = phpwcms.articlecat.acat_id

and then sorting by

acat_sort

BUT I have no idea how to implement this.

any ideas?

I have been using teaser_ex to create little image adverts like on this page http://www.thearkdover.co.uk where the teaser list uses the article summary image and links to the article.

I now need to do a similar thing with a v.1.3.5 install of phpWCMS. I'm running teaser v1.9 but have the problem that the image gets resized down to 45 px width.

Does anyone have any idea how I can get around this pleeeeease?!!!

Have you got a link to a site where this is happening? So that we can see exactly what is causing this?

I'll try my best to help then ;-)

Ignore me I am a fool!!

You know when you just expect stuff not to work and think 'darn this hack really doesn't work with the new version of phpwcms' when really all that was wrong was a flipping RT!!!!

teaser mod hosting?

Post by pSouper »

A Teaser content part is part of the current phpWCMS which may make this mod redunant -having never gotten around to using this mod I can't say if there is a benefit to it still but am open to the fact that some may wish/need to use it still...

If anyone has the latest release I would be happy to host it until it finds it's rightful home again.

please message me through the board and I will have it up within a few mins.

regards,
pSouper
