Title: Articles, Categories and Article Block
Post by: Nokonium on October 15, 2006, 05:09:24 PM
I have been exploring the TP posibilities for a news orientated site, that is mainly article based with article organisation and display of prime importance, forum functions not important.

I have set the (Content) Menu block to show different article categories, a module block to show latest articles and I have set 4 article blocks up as different categories, but only 2 display.

Suggestions for the Article Block

1) In Block types have just Article Block
2) In the TP Module Block only display Module related list items, remove the article ones.
3) Have a specific Article Block list, with the following options (articles displayed according to individual article permissions).
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  a) Articles - Recently written
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  b) Articles - Top Views
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  c) Articles - Top Comments
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  d) Articles - Categories [select categories to show in the array]
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  e) Articles - Category and (indented) sub categories (no limit on number of blocks)
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  f) Articles - Single Category (list all articles in a category with option to set number to show)
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  g) Articles - Single Article
