I'm configuring XOOPS for my own use and have changed the News module name to "Library". I also want to change the "Submit News" menu name to something else.

Where do I go to do this - is there a template that I need to edit?

Thanks,

This is what I did for my site and it worked great - this is a great feature.

There's another feature on the XOOPS site that I'd like to emulate and I'm not completely sure how it's done.

Under General Information, if you click the "Overview" menu, you get a center page with a block of HTML text and an image that is nicely framed with a border. How is this done. Since there is no "Overview" module/block, I'm assuming there is some customization done somewhere. What do you need to do to create this custom block/module and link it to a menu?

Cool - thanks for the menu code. I'm not sure where I'll find it, but I'll hunt around and see if I can make it work.

Yes - the XOOPS search box is what I want to automate. Here's what I'm trying to accomplish.

My site is a news site that mirrors content that is sent out via email once or twice a week to a large group ( > 4500). These email distributions are referred to as Digests and readers are used to reading multiple articles at one time.

I'm trying to use XOOPS to simulate a digest of multiple articles. My intial plan is to put "Digest: 2003-105" (for instance) in the header of each news posting. Readers could then type "2003-105" into the search box and retrieve a concise list of all news postings that relate to that digest issue.

I want to automate the search via a URL so that I can place a link in a custom HTML block at the top of the News page that will direct users to "Click Here" for the latest digest. Clicking the hyperlink will perform a search for all articles with a particular string.

Ultimately, I guess, I'd like to have a custom field where I could type in the digest number. I don't know how to do that short of creating topics. Since we'll have >110 issues each year, that doesn't seem like the right approach.

Hi everyone....

I'm converting a static site to XOOPS and need some basic modification help.

1. I created a custom HTML block for the top of my home page. I'd like to include a link that will execute a search. Is there a way to do this?

2. I see how my active modules populate the Main Menu. How do I create additional menus (much like the ones on this site)?

Thanks very much.
