    "Read More.... " link

    Hi there,

    I'm installed Umbraco 4.03 a couple of days ago. How can I make the classic read more link, like news articles in other CMS (for example like in joomla)?

    Any suggestion are appreciated.

    Alex,

    If you want to display a list of news articles and a 'read more' link following a title and teaser, this is a quick

    take on what you might do.  I haven't validated the xslt.  Just a quick type.

    <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node [@nodeTypeAlias = 'newsStory']">
<div>
<strong><xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/></strong><br/>
<p>
<xsl:value-of select="data [@alias='storyTeaser'] "/>
</p>
<a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">Read More...</a>
</div>
</xsl:for-each>

     

    If you haven't gotten that involved with the xslt and macros yet, I would suggest downloading the CWS package for demo of 

    how to implement news.
