How to show only the summary on frontpage and then the whole article on a seperate page?
I have specified the seperate page in options in the News module, but it still shows everything on the frontpage?
Please help.
Thanks

1) Put on your frontpage: {news ... detailpage="alias of detailpage"}
2) Make a detailpage and mark it not to be shown in the menu

The default function of News is to show the summary with a more link to the 'detail/content' of an article, if you are getting everything right off the bat then you may not be using the summary edit box...

Okay, that helped me in the right direction.
But when I click on the "NewsSummaryLink" and go to the article, I have the summary to that article and all the other summaries right beneath it. How can I prevent summaries tailing my articles?
In the DetailTemplate, I can“t find anything refering to summaries, so how come they show up anyway?
Thanks
