how to display full article name?

posts: 68

Hi,

In the List Articles page, how can I let the full name of the article be displayed? Is there someway I can tweak the script to display the full name or set the number of characters?

Also, I would like to display 50 articles in the List Articles page - please tell me how I can set this.

Many Thanks,
Sooraj.

Hi for this
edit your tiki-list_articles.tpl file.
In there you will find a place that says
listpageschanges.title|truncate:20:"...":true

You can change the 20 to what ever you want, this is the no. of places allowed.

The other question you posted about how many items.
I think is answered by editing your tiki-list_articles.php working with the maxRecords and/or offset values. Can not say how so I will suggest that as just a starting point to look at? (maybe its in the tpl as well?)

you can always totally remove the |truncate to show all of the title no matter how many characters

For the display of items, goto Admin->General and change the 10 value in there.

hey Damian

The admin area changes the number of items when the Articles or Articles home link is used (tiki-view_articles)

I was thinking here that what sooeydoo wanted was to list more material using the list articles link (tiki-list_articles)
How would you increase this list length? Some sites I have do not have enough material to warrent a limited display.
