Documentation?

I have been using phpwcms for several years - thanks, great CMS! However I am not creating more complex sites, and the lack of documentation is becoming a big problem for me. phpwcms-docu.de seems to be missing content-parts and replacement tags... where can I find a complete list?

no list yet. Searching the forum. Ask the community. Hey, give it a try.

I've been giving it a try (for several years). Sometimes its nice to have a full list for better brainstorming. Searching can be limited when one does not know what to search for (e.g. searching for a concept).

My current challenge:

Partial Structure Level:

Current Season
-- Shows

When clicking on "Shows" in the menu, the user sees an article list for the 'Shows' category level. (Articles are dated, so they expire after the event). This works fine.

Challenge: For the "Current Season" level I want an article with the following:

Intro Message <- Done, easy
Show the first published article in the Shows level (full or summary) <-- how do I do this?
List of all articles in the Shows category <_ Done, easy

In short, how do I display either the summary (or full article) for the top article in another level?

This is called Content Part "Teaser" ;)

The question remains: which version are you running?

That install is 1.3.9, but will update to 1.4.1 soon. Will do a search on the "teaser" CP, thanks.

EDIT: if you meant the teaser/link CP, it only seems to support pointing to a specific article, and not pointing to the TOP (published) article in a level. Articles will come and go, I need to always include the top one (of those published, visible, etc.).
