Hi my helpful friends,
I was using on my site as a start page the news modules when i lately discovered that whatever i would add to be displayed in the start page, would be displayed at the news pages also (probably cause i have set news as the start page).
I used then spotlight but the "other news" option that it has, doesn't fills me cause it's different from the news layout.
So i came to the conclusion to make a module on my own so I can display the latest news on frontpage without specifying news as start page.
For my module, i made the /template/blocks/all_news.htm look like this:
le="color: #000000"><?php <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="item"> <tr> <td> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="98%"> <tbody> <tr> <td class="itemHead"> <span class="itemTitle"><{$story.title}></span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="itemInfo"> <{if $story.poster != ''}><span class="itemPoster"><{$lang_postedby}> <{$story.poster}></span><{/if}> <span class="itemPostDate"><{$lang_on}> <{$story.posttime}></span> (<span class="itemStats"><{$story.hits}> <{$lang_reads}></span>) </td> </tr> <tr> <td><div class="itemBody"> <{$story.imglink}> <p class="itemText"><{$story.text}></p> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="itemFoot"> <span class="itemAdminLink"><{$story.adminlink}></span> <span class="itemPermaLink"><{$story.morelink}></span> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </td> </tr> </table>
Now I need the blocks/all_news.php code so it could read the values for the above template to be shown correctly. I have searched the news2 module but I cannot find a way through the code. I only need the part which news2 module reads the latest news to be displayed on index (start page).
This will help a lot people I think.
Thank you.
