News Display Layout

Classic shows all news ordered by date of publish. News by topic will group the news by topic with the latest story in full and the others with just the title.

now i want to use news by topic but i want to display 3-5 artilces in full and others with just title instead of displaying latest story in full.

how can i do that?
Plz help

It's just a template problem. Just edit the template so XOOPS gives no "special consideration" to first item.

I dont think it is defined in template. it might be somewhere defined in classes. but i canot find it.
i checked in XOOPS version and modinfo it is there but cannot find the link to where it is defined i mean the number of the topics etc

Yes, it's defined in template. I know it for sure because i changed it for one customer some time ago.

Just paste the template code here.

OK. Replace this...

Quote:

<{if $storynum == 0}>
<{include file="db:news_item.html" story=$story}>



By this...

Quote:
<{if $storynum < 3}>
<{include file="db:news_item.html" story=$story}>
