Perhaps using the module Spotlight (let's you have main story in home page) and modifying the template that comes with it.

I use extra news blocks that are provided by studioC.

See this thread: Extra News Blocks

It does require some customization, CSS, but it works well.

Hi jdseymour,
Thanx .. everything ok .. now i wanna make another block named "Alerts", it's same News block but i wanna add small icon after date, there r 3 icons ( Red, Green and Yellow ) accourding to alert type.
I think this need to make hack or modifiy to News editor to make selectable checkbox or dropdown menu with 3 icons.

Re: Simple News Block

Yes, I believe that you can rename the module and install another instance. Play around with the template until you get it the way you want.

Post back when you finish, I would like to see what you came up with. Good luck and happy Xoopsing.
