[Solved] Changing News Module

Post by Cobby »

Hi all,

I plan on use the news module to post reviews, tutorials, etc. On the home page, the main content will be the latest topics.

By Default it outputs like this:

06/17/07
This is a test article - title.
Category: Tutorial
Posted by: Cobby

This is a test article - summary.


And I want to change it to this:

This is a test article - title.  //would be preferable that this wasn't hyperlinked.

17/06/07  //note the swap with days and months.
This is a test article - title.
Category: Tutorial

This is a test article - summary.

I know PHP and understand the concept of the smarty template engine. I just need to know which file I need to edit in order to make those changes.

Also, how can I set it to automatically create more pages after a certain amount of lines?

Cheers,
Cobby

Ok, well I found out how to change the date.

I have found the files I need to edit in order to change the format.

But can someone give me a hot tip on how I will have the title twice, but one WITHOUT the hyperlink?

Cheers,
Cobby
