This post is very similar to one I made last week at http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 896.0.html - but it was for the Calendar Module.
What I want to do is have a news summary on my home page - if the news is lengthy, i would like it to link to the full page story as it does by default anyway. BUT if it is only short - ie a few lines, I don't want to link to another page at all - and remove the >more link (and link in the title). I have noticed if you don't insert any text in the content area it doesn't let you post the news item though - hope this isn't a problem... or there is an easy way around...
I have applied the code that someone gave to me from my previous post to the calendar module for this same effect but as it all looks like another language to me I can't work out how to apply this same concept to the news module... which lies my request for someone's help...
My news summary template looks like this:
***
{foreach from=$items item=entry}
{$entry->titlelink}
{if $entry->summary}
{eval var=$entry->summary}
[{$entry->morelink}]
{else if $entry->content}
{eval var=$entry->content}
{/if}
{/foreach}
***
Thanks
