Where can the Widget be placed?
The widget can be used in the following templates:
- Article List Page Template
Widget Options
Option | Use | Comments | Available from Version |
---|---|---|---|
Description | A short description of the widget's use. | We recommended this field be updated so the widget's purpose is clear at a glance from the template page. | All |
Layer | The layer the widget is valid for. | The layering technology allows for the content to be shown to specific audiences. This is handy if the content is only valid for a certain type of user, or if the same widget is required for more than one audience, but different configuration is needed. The widget can be added to the zone more than once and the layer feature can determine which audience can see each widget. | All |
List Title | The heading text displayed at the top of the article list. | All | |
Title Icon | The icon displayed to the left of the List Title. | Select via drop-down | All |
Max Number Of Articles | The maximum number of articles to display in the article list. | Default is: 5 | All |
Article Type Filter | The article 'type' from which the list items are drawn (each article is assigned a 'type' on creation; the drop-down list will be populated with all available Article Types on your site). | Select via drop-down | All |
Order By Field | Determines which article field is used to order the articles in the list. | Default is: Posted Date | All |
Order By Direction | Determines which direction the articles are ordered by - ascending or descending. | Default is: Descending | All |
Image Position | Determines the side that the image will be displayed on. This option will also move the summary and the 'Read Full Article' button to the far left in place of where the image is by default. | Default is: Left | All |
Show Read Article Button | Determines whether the 'Read Full Article' button is displayed for each article. (The user can navigate to the full article page if this option is unticked by clicking on the article title.) | Default is: ticked Untick to disable | All |
Article Route Prefix | The prefix inserted between the main site URL and the article title. Used for SEO purposes. For example, in the following URL, 'blog' is the route prefix: http://www.commercevision.com.au/blog/back-to-the-future | Default is: article | All |
Show Article Date | Determines whether the article date is displayed. If not, the Article summary text is shifted up in place of the date text. | Default is: ticked Untick to disable | 3.83 |
Enable Article Toggle | Determines whether article content can be expanded and collapsed. When ticked, the article Title will display, but content will be hidden until the user toggles to expand. This functionality replaces the hyperlink which takes the user to a new page to display article content. NOTE - If Article Toggle is enabled, please disable Article Hyperlink (they are incompatible). | Default is: unticked Tick to enable (and untick Article Hyperlink) | 3.86 |
Enable Article Hyperlink | Allows the user to navigate to the full article page by clicking on the news article heading. Disabling this option removes the hyperlink on the article heading. | Default is: ticked Untick to disable | 3.83 |
