You probably could but I can't help with how - it will be in the files somewhere. I would advise against it in the sense that the more news topics shown on this main page the more the reader can see to select from to click on and read more. If you only have one they might think there is only one news story and nothing more. This is for the 'top page' which is a kind of index page/introduction to all your news items not just one. Once an article is clicked on in 'more' they will get just that one article and the commets on it.

edit - news/xoops_version.php


find this:
$modversion['config'][1]['name'] = 'storyhome';
$modversion['config'][1]['title'] = '_MI_STORYHOME';
$modversion['config'][1]['description'] = '_MI_STORYHOMEDSC';
$modversion['config'][1]['formtype'] = 'select';
$modversion['config'][1]['valuetype'] = 'int';
$modversion['config'][1]['default'] = 5;
$modversion['config'][1]['options'] = array('5' => 5, '10' => 10, '15' => 15, '20' => 20, '25' => 25, '30' => 30);


change the last line so it looks like this:

$modversion['config'][1]['options'] = array('1' => 1, '5' => 5, '10' => 10, '15' => 15, '20' => 20, '25' => 25, '30' => 30);



then update your news module and change the number of stories under preferences.

I want it like an "article of the day" block that can show the images no only entering but from startpage. Maybe I will enable a module that shows more articles.
