Summary Templates by Category

Post by mesaredo »

I have the following issue. How we can assign, by default, one summary template to a specific News category.

I know the method {news category:'1' summarytemplate:'1'}
But, if I want differents layouts by categories, for example, I need to do:

{news category:'1' summarytemplate:'1'}
{news category:'2' summarytemplate:'2'}

Then, I get the news in ordered lines: |NewsCat1| |NewsCat1| |NewsCat2| |NewsCat2|

But I need random display:
|NewsCat3| |NewsCat1| |NewsCat2| |NewsCat4| ... and each summary with is own style.

Some ideas?

There is no way to assign a summary template to a category other than the way you have it now with summarytemplate='specific template'...
