Article Display

To display the articles, create a template referencing the Article system. Refer to the sample code below.

Attach the data source Articles,Article.GetArticlesNotExpiredForCurrentUser(null,-1,2,"") with the sample code below: 

Code Block
@foreach (Article article in Model.Articles) {
