If you enter the metadata in the other tab of the publisher while adding the article, you will get what you want.

If you want to use Xoops in a much more flexible way, I recommend using Blocks anywhere <{block id=x}>. @trabis quote from "Blocks anywhere" is a smarty plugin that provides an easy way to place a block in a theme or template. Just upload this smarty plugin to class/smarty/xoops_plugins folder and you will be able to add a block using the following method: Replace '1' by the id of the block you want to display. You can find id of block in blocks administration(or groups), just hover the mouse over block 'EDIT' link and you will see something like this: .../modules/system/admin.php?fct=blocksadmin&op=edit&bid=3 This plugin respects XOOPS permissions. It will only display the block for users that are allowed to see it(as set in groups permissions). This plugin also takes in consideration cached blocks. Version 1.1 brings you some new cool options such as: display = 'title' -> shows just title display = 'none' -> renders the block but does not display it options = 'enter|block|options' -> overwrites block default options groups = 'enter|allowed|groups' -> overwrites block default group view permissions cache = 3600 -> overwrite cache time(in seconds) Code examples: Usage example: Place your 'multimenu' block in your theme. Invisible online block that updates online users table. Add an image gallery block inside article category page. Add users online block into yogurt profile page Footnote: Plugin now comes standard on current Xoops versions

You can't solve this by changing the tpl file.

publisher/blocks/items_spot.php You need to edit the php file.

There is already a block for this. Themes block in the system module. But if you want to do it with a button, you can use the code below. domain.com/index.php?xoops_theme_select=XH-003

Quote: The version of the publisher module you are using is outdated. You are getting this error because the classes in the older versions of the publisher are not the same as the new versions.

ok you can do much better.

If you want, install the publisher module and send the ftp information, I'll do it.

As an example, the following site was made with the code block I gave you

In short, you can do whatever you want.

If I understand correctly you want to do something like this
