Dear All

I have installed the newest article module and would like to know if its possible to have a block with a random article in it?

I see that it has no such block so how can i create one of my own with a random article displayed? preferably with a "more" option rather than the full article in the block.

thanks so much in advance,
prasad..

$i++;
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["file"] = "block.php";
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["name"] = art_constant("MI_ARTICLE");
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["description"] = art_constant("MI_ARTICLE_DESC");
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["show_func"] = $GLOBALS["ART_VAR_PREFIX"]."_article_show";
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["options"] = "time|10|0|0|c|0";
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["edit_func"] = $GLOBALS["ART_VAR_PREFIX"]."_article_edit";
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["template"] = $GLOBALS["ART_VAR_PREFIX"]."_block_article.html";


change
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["options"] = "time|10|0|0|c|0";
=>
$modversion["blocks"][$i]["options"] = "random|10|0|0|c|0";
