We have recently modified some core modules in Joomla in order to provide some much-needed functionality to our clients. We will be happy to release these to everybody, once we have tested them. The first module ready for release is an enhancement to the Newsflash module, which allows the display of multiple random articles.
UPDATED! Version 1.0.1 now available. Changes: Articles are now randomised BEFORE they are selected, so you truly get a random display of articles when you set a limit.
The core Newsflash module is very useful, however it suffers one obvious limitation: the ability to display multiple random articles in either the Vertical or Horizontal formats.
This module is a replica of the newsflash module, but simply provides two extra options in addition to Default (random), Horizontal, and Vertical.
When using the Joomla Enhanced Newsflash module, you will also have the options of Horizontal-Random and Vertical-Random. The additional options are the same as their counterparts, except they have a simple piece of code added which randomises the array of articles before it is displayed.
We hope you find this useful!
INSTALLATION: Simply use the Joomla installer to locate the module zip file, and away you go. You will now have a new module called Newsflash_Enhanced available.
You can download the module here:
LATEST v1.0.1 Joomla Elegant Logic Newsflash Module v.1.0.1
