Hi.

I have a list of articles from a spesific category in one page. It should only show one line of info. On the frontpage, I want to show only the latest featured article, which i have set up perfectly from the content module. But i would like to have the option, in the article list, to toggle an article to be featured (show on frontpage) or not. It is just one line of info that will change from time to time, and if no articles are featured, it will say something premade.

Appreciate any help on this.

I am also wondering about how i may make an else statement in the content module so that if there are no articles, it displays an optional message..?

Hi,

There is already an if statement at the default.php template file that checks if there are any items before passing the data to the foreach loop.

In order to create an else statement you can do something like the following one

Hi, I've tried that if /else statement but it does not work in the content module when only featured items shall display..... when no items in the selected category is featured, the module is hidden even if i have an else statement.

You are correct. Check the files modules/mod_k2_content at Line 53-56. If the $items variable has no data then the template file of the module is not included.

You can add an else statement there. Beware though that you are hacking the core by doing this and you may have issues on future updates.

Thanks for the reply Teo, I tried this and it worked perfectly.

Now i just need some help adding a quicktoggle button for admins on the frontend (category view) to switch an article between being featured or not...

Do you know if this is possible?

Unfortunately you will have to manually edit each item in order to change the featured flag.
