Hi,

I've a question. Is it possible to have a page in the menu where you can find old news. I've the news at the homepage, but I don't want the old news there, but I want that people still can read it.

Is that possible?
Thnx!
Ingrid

(sorry, my english isn't very well)

Create a new content page, entitled "Archived News" or some such thing, and then in the content of that page put {cms_module module=news start=N+1} where N is the number used in your main page to control the number of articles displayed.

yep, that's exactly how I did it for http://www.toeg.nl
the right menu contains all news messages but has an offset of 5, so it looks like an archive. In the main page itself I display just the first 5 items (the newest/freshest ones).
