Thanks a lot for your reply. I tried it with a very simple block (random quote), it worked fine on every page except the homepage I got a blank page. I'll try to hack it a bit more to see why is that. anyways, just wanted to say thanks!

Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to install multiple instances of the same module. I.e installe instance 1 of the news module, for example, and call it "books". Then, install instance 2 of the same module and call it "articles", etc. If it is not, is there a way to achieve the same effect?

Thanks,
Abdala

Hi,

What I am actually trying to is in the news module to separate the story title from the topic title. I managed to do that. Now, when I go to the index page of that specific topic, it lists the titles of the stories, but it is not obvious what the topic title is. So, I was thinking of checking the address (entire URL) in the address bar and hardcoding the story title in a different place in the page. Talk about terrible coding practice! that's how much I know though!

Another thing, I would love to be able to do what you did in your website, gaining-mass, collect stories of separate topics in separate blocks.

Thanks in advance,
Abdala

Hi,

Quick PHP question if that's allowed:

I want to write the following in PHP but I don't know how since I don't know much PHP at all. In a table cell, I wanna do the following:

if ((address in address bar)==("string1")){
echo "string2";
}

How would I code this in PHP?

Thanks,
Abdala

The block should show more than one message. What version of XOOPS are you using it with? Have you more than one article in the selected category?


I am using XOOPS 2.0.1. I do have more than one message. The reason why I know is because when I sort the articles by date, I get a different article listed than when I sort them by the number of hits.

The second is a bit more tedious. How many more blocks do you need, and how comfortable are you with editing php code by hand?


I need, I would say, about 10. As for PHP knowledge, I am not very comfortable with it yet. I am working on it though.

Thanks again!

Thank you so much for your reply. I actually did not know that you replied to this message of mine. By chance I came across it when I was still searching for the same thing.

Any ways I installed the module, but I have a slight problem. The block is only showing 1 message eventhough I set it to display 2, 5, or 10 messages.

Another question: How can I make multiple blocks of mutliple news topics?

Thanks a lot in advance!

(I Put this question originally in the Q & A forum which I think is the wrang place)

Hi,

I have created several news topics and now what I would like to do is to create for each topic a block which will have the titles of the articles of each respective topic. I.e say if I have a sports topic and a news topic, I want to create a block on my homepage for sports that will have the sports titles and a block for news which will have the news titles.

Anyone can help? Thanks in advance!

Abdala
