News Module: Add a different detail page to certain articles

Post by Method »

I have read how to change the detail pages for ALL news articles using the "{news detailpage='detail'}" but I need to do some things slightly different.

I would like only ONE article to go to a different page. This is the senario.

I have a news article like this..
---------------------------------------------
Summary: New Team Schedule!
Content: Check out the new Team Schedule here
---------------------------------------------


Instead of saying "Check out the calendar here" I would like the "More Link" to take the visitor directly to the Calendar(which is on its own page).


I would also like to keep the other Articles the way they are. Meaning,
------------------------------------------
Summary: A Big Thankyou
Content: We would like to give a big thank you to all the parents for blah blah blah...
-------------------------------------------
And when the visitor clicks on the "More Link" it takes them to the default detail page with the ugly URL's and all.

Possible? Any Ideas? ???

Just use the Content: area only for that one post and put a CMSMS self link in the bottom of it with More... as the text...

Hilite More... and click selflink... little orange palm tree and use the calendar page as link, if you are trying to hit a certain article in Calendar you may have to open that article and copy the address from the address bar and just make it a link, when you hilite the word the chain will become clickable, and put the copied address in it that way it will open to the calendar article...
