News module question

[hillick]

Hi all,

I would like to be able to place different news items on different pages in my site. Basically, i have a a page of sotware products my client sells, i want each product to have its own page with different latest news items for each page. how do i do this? im guessing its something like content blocks but for news items.....?

hillick,

I use

Code: Select all

{news category="general" number=5 detailpage='Uutiset' detailpage="news" dateformat="%d-%m-%Y"}

In which "category" is the news-category, so if you have two categories, you can call the above line on two different pages for the wanted category.

I also use the "detailpage"-option to have the opened news-item put on a new page, with the title "News". To do this I created a content-page that is active, but NOT shown in menu. Without this option, the news is opened on the content page you are calling it from.
