I love CMS Made Simple

Hi,

This is my first CMSMS site. Please let me know what you think of it. I couldn't test it with older browsers so any feedback would be terrific.

Your add a comment is messed up... it doesn't expand/contract and the button for it has the comments between it and the actual form for comments...

The photo of the week runs off the page if you make it narrow... I use Firefox...

Thanks for the feedback.

I fixed the photo in the right column problem by changing the CSS from fixed width to %.

Now to work on the Comments problem.

Thanks again.

Thank you

Hi,

Thanks for the compliment. The way I use the News module to set up categories for different types of stories - News, Blog, Interview, Opinions, etc.

Then on my home page, I just enter the following code.

Code: Select all

Celebrating Black History Month
{news number="1" detailpage="news" category="Monthly"} 
The Interview
{news number="1" detailpage="news" category="interview"} 
News and Features
{news number="4" detailpage="news" category="news"} 
Opinion and Comments
{news number="2" detailpage="news" category="opinion"}

I learned how to do it by reading the News module help and working with the editor of the site. He is the one who came up with the categories and the number of articles to display each week.
