Let me understand what you want..

you want, that every news that you show in the lates_news module have a read more link after the title ?

example

news 1 read more...
news 2 readmore...

ok ....


so you have 1 category shown 10 articles in latest news module .

then you want: that if you click the "read more" link in one of the 10 articles

redirect you to a "blogLayout" of the category Instead see that particular article.

Correct me if I'm wrong

and sorry for my crappy english :-[

OK

I have this result

Image


as you can see rigth below to the XX items there is a "read more link" .



this is what you have to do

first go to yourjoomlapath/modules/mod_latestnews/tmpl

and rename the file default.php to default.php.bak (this is just a way to back up)


create a file and name it default.php

then

paste this code into the "new" default.php file

Code:
<?php // no direct access
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access'); ?>
<ul class="latestnews<?php echo $params->get('moduleclass_sfx'); ?>">
<?php foreach ($list as $item) :  ?>

   <li class="latestnews<?php echo $params->get('moduleclass_sfx'); ?>">
      <a href="<?php echo $item->link; ?>" class="latestnews<?php echo $params->get('moduleclass_sfx'); ?>">
         <?php echo $item->text; ?></a>
   </li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<a href="<?php echo JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($params->get('catid'), $params->get('secid'))); ?>">
      read more...</a>
</ul>


save and try it

if there is one problem let me now

Thank you very much for this code which works perfectly on both jabulletine module and native joomla latest news module. But I want one thing more in this code. If there is no news listed in the module or say module is empty, there should be a text like "There is no news for the moment". Right now I can see "read more" link even if there is no news listed. Hope you will solve this for me.
