Trying to add shord description to content

Post by Solitary »

Hi all,
This is what I've done up to now: I've created a copy of the content type and called it article. What I want to do now is when I go to addcontent or editcontent to be able to write short article description and the full one. I've been struggling with that cause it seems like the content is part of mProperties and when I start following the steps after submitting I seem to get lost and never find the place where content's been added to mProperties.

Can someone help or am I on my own with this challenge.

Thanks.
Solitary

Another idea came to my mind. I could create a template with 2 extra content blox and then whne the page is displayed ignore the extra content blocks and display only the original.

sounds like you could use news (news item is kinda like article?)

two or more content areas might work also. you can hide them with css or with html comments...
