Only Display Title of Articles in Category Blog Layout

Post by ravee1010 » Thu Jan 31, 2013 1:17 pm

Guys please help me out in just displaying the title of the article in Category Blog Layout.

I mean it should have no content of the article and just show the title like it does in category list layout.

I have problem with category list layout because we are unable to display the article title in multiple columns in Category List layout even after spending hours of my time working on it.

Now i believe that for making the category blog layout to display only title i have to comment few lines
can anyone let me know which lines needs to be commented.


Thanks in Advance.

There are some extensions that will probably help you with this:

SectionCategoryArticleList Component:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... ting/19418

SectionCategoryArticleList Module:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... ting/22931

Article Lister Module:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... sting/7314

List of Articles in Content Plug-in:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... ting/13950

sectionList Plug-in:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... ting/21324

There are likely others.

If you need something more customised, you can create a template override at:

/templates/[your-template-name]/html/com_content/category/blog.php

Hi there,

Using extensions is unnecessary here. It is obviously something that is at the core of Joomla itself. My guess is that if you go to the menu item, choose 'category blog' you will see a tab entitled 'Blog Layout'.

Check if the numbers have been put in the fields here. You can configure how many leading and intro articles are shown in the category blog. If the fields are left empty, you will encounter the problem you mentioned.

Cheers,

Thom, Thomsterdam
