Newsitem with more than one category

Post by iris_saxo »

I'm using cms system 1.12 and newsmodule 2.15.01

What I will is that 1 newsitem appears on different pages.
f.e. categories: activity= walking, running, swimming,... and place= antwerpen, gent, brussel,...

Each evenement needs to have an activity and a place and has to appear in different pages:
- page walking: all the walking evenements
- page antwerpen: all the evenements in antwerpen.

But I can only choose one category for a newsitem, so how can I solve this?

Consider using CGBlog it supports multiple categories per article.

Or CGCalendar as you are talking about events (evenement).

In CGCalendar you create timed/dated events and you can give each event categories. Then you can have a page showing only the events in certain categories. And when the event is passed they are automatically hidden (although you can show past events too if you wish). Very versatile module.
