News Module Nice feature

Post by calguy1000 »

Hi all just wanted to ask for this one nice feature to allow me to manage stuff when I get alog of articles in the list.

I would like an option to delete any entries older than "X months, 1 year".... etc etc from the list ( a simple pulldown and button would work).  I currently have about 75 entries in my news list and it's getting a little unruly.

Maybe there could be an option to archive articles, like in Mambo/Joomla? Then they can still be found by searching, but won't show together with the other news on the news/news archive page. Preferrably this archiving could be done either manually (selecting what articles to archive) or automatically (like for articles older than X months).

I'm not sure how that works in Mambo/Joomla, I'm not a skilled programmer by any means, but I suppose that's the kind of function that you're looking for.
