Hi,

You can create a topic by source (sample with Reuters)

After, you edit the template news_item.html (look blue text) :
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="item">
<
tr>
    <
td>
        <
table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="98%">
        <
tr>
            <
td class="itemHead"><span class="itemTitle"><{$story.title}></span></td>
        </
tr>
        <
tr>
            <
td class="itemInfo"><{if $story.files_attached}><{$story.attached_link}>&nbsp;<{/if}>[b][color=0000CC]&nbsp;&nbsp;<{$story.topic_title}> -[/color][/b] <{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}> <{$lang_reads}></span>) <{$news_by_the_same_author_link}></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><{if $rates}><b><{$lang_ratingc}></b> <{$story.rating}> (<{$story.votes}>) - <a href="<{$xoops_url}>/modules/news/ratenews.php?storyid=<{$story.id}>" rel="nofollow"><{$lang_ratethisnews}></a> - <{/if}><span class="itemPermaLink"><{$story.morelink}></span></td>
        </
tr>
        </
table>
    </
td>
</
tr>
</
table>

Unfortunately I hava categories, and this field is used to select news by category (You know category like sience, tech etc.)

any ideas?
