Ability to extend News Summary Template to sort data

[blackhawk]

I'm using the following news summary tag to display a list of news summary items from CMSMS

Code: Select all

{news summarytemplate="alpha_summary" detailpage="blog" category="sermon" sortasc="false"}

This does a beautiful job in displaying a list of news items. But how can I take this to the next level and give my users the ability to sort news items by date or category? which will be displayed for each news item in the summary view.

Are there any CMSMS tutorials out there that talk about this?

Thanks

Have a look at the (help of) CGSimpleSmarty module, and then specific the 'module_action_link' method.
