Intro Text and Images for Articles


JohnCourt

Recommended Posts

Dear folks, after all this time of owning IP I am finally diving into creating databases and custom articles with custom fields etc. So far I have only been able to list articles, but I cannot get any intro text or intro images to show. I have followed the help guide at

to build a recipe page, that is all well, but when it comes to listing the article in a block, or even a page, I cannot, can someone point me to some documentation for triggering intro text and images natively? Thanks folks

You can check out my SuperGrid template set

I was waiting for that Open!? Since there is no native ability, then the only alternative is? Thanks for your help, I'll surf on over and see the SuperGrid, thanks again.

There are two ways of adding intro text, both of which require customization of template.  You can add a new custom field (call it something like Teaser) or you can truncate the first line of your article.  In both cases you will need to customize the templates.  

The easier approach is to get the super templates by Opentype.
