News Module with 2 columns Topic is solved

[aleix]

Hi everybody,

Anybody knows how to modify the News Module to let me show the news of the same category in 2 columns??

Thanks!

Do you mean like 1>5 then 5>9... go to Extensions > Modules and click the word News or Help for the parameters used in the News Module...

I have arleady seen the different parameters you can give to the News Module, but there isn't a parameter to shoe the news in 2 columns...

like this:

New 1New 2New 3New 4

This is what I want...

Anymore ideas?

Nope no parameter for that, you will have to put them in diff. div's or mess with the templates...

What you want to do can be achieved by using HTML and CSS. You can either display it as a List (UL or OL) or as a table with two columns ... feel free to modify the templates so that they meet your requirements. All you need to do is have a look at the Smarty-Syntax (see http://smarty.php.net) and apply it to your template. Most things can be done by using Smarty - especially when it comes to output of code.

Also, from what I understand, you can't have 1>5  6>10 of only one category.

I'd like to have the summary list of only one category without the first article (category="health" start="2") but haven't been able to make that work.

Peace

Perfect, finally I used UL, and I made a list in 2 columns.

The only I had to do is give a width to the UL, and then give half-width to every of the LI...

It worked!

Thanks a lot!
