|
This module shows a list of articles with title, introtext, image, author, category, hits, rating, comments... and much more! It can be used with standard Joomlas content system, but some options will only be available if FLEXIcontent has been installed.
This module was first created by Micker and Thierry S., and then I started editing it. It now fully supports FLEXIcontents features: custom text and image fields, secondary category system, JoomFish... The module automatically detects if FLEXIcontent has been installed on the site and shows you different parameters accordingly, so you can use it on normal Joomla sites too.
Features:
* Show articles title, introtext, hits, rating (total or average), image, date, author(name or username), category, comments
* Limit to Category(/ies) or Section(s)
* Choose wheter to show only frontpage articles, all but those or both of them.
* Possibility of toggling and styling every part of the module for a custom output
* Ready to go, as the default options already give you a nice look that can be used on any site
* Possibility of adding a custom link at the bottom of the module, so that you can redirect your users to a custom category or link
* Different ordering methods: Creation Date, Last Modified, Hits, Rating, Alphabetically, Reverse Alphabetically, Custom Order, Random and Upcoming Events, that displays articles based on the date they will be unpublished
* Possibility of limiting the output to the last X days (So that you can display last weeks most visited articles, for example), or to skip the first X articles (to avoid showing an article that is already being shown by another module, or to pile more than one allnews module with different display options)
* Multi-Language backend (Italian, English and French supported at the moment, send me a translation file if you want it added). Every string of text on the frontend can be edited right from the modules backend, with no need of manually editing any file.
*JoomFish support (only if FLEXIcontent is installed). Language files support for frontend coming soon.
* Possibility of shortening the title or the introtext if its too long.
* Possibility of showing the first image of the article, a default image or an image taken from a FLEXIcontent image field.
* Choosing to display a image field from FLEXIcontent, you can choose what to do if the article has nothing in that field and if to display the image with or without the watermark added by flexicontent.
* FLEXIcontents secondary category feature support - Toggle the option on to also display those articles whose secondary category is the one selected. Avoid activating this option when the display isnt limited to an only category to avoid duplicates.
*You can choose to load the publication, creation (...) date from jos_content or from a FLEXIcontent field of your choice.
Support will be given both on my website and on the FLEXIcontent one, with the only difference that the
