News Detail

[Matthew Prose]

I am a little confused about the News rule.  I added a news rule to  
one of my pages, which works well for the teaser copy and image.  
However when I click read more it takes me to the home page to display  
the full article.

How do you choose what page you want the full article to reside on?

Thanks
Matt

If you want the link to be different you only have to check the
components of the news rule, follow the leads to webskins etc and you
will see how it's build up and be able to change as needed.

Matt,

You can set request.navid and this should position your menu assuming
you're using the genericNav menu code.

A couple of quick ways to do this:
1. Simple
Create a news archive page with your new publishing rule, set the
navalias to newsarchive,
Then in your news display webskin, <cfset request.navid.newsarchive>
That enable the navigation to display all news items with the news
archive node highlighted as active

2. Slightly More Complex
Add a new property to your news content type - extend the dmNews to
your project
<cfproperty ftseq="10" ftwizardStep="General Details"
ftfieldset="Navigator" name="navNavigator" type="string" hint="News
Navigator." required="no" default="" fttype="navigation" ftlabel="Site
Tree Home"
        ftalias="subjects" ftselectmultiple="0"
        fthelptitle="Content Location"
        fthelpsection="Use the News Navigator to set the content
placement." />
Then your content admin users will be able to select a navigation node
to be the news item home
Then in your news display webskin, <cfset request.stobj.navNavigator>
That enable the navigation node selected in the news admin will be
highlighted as active in the menu.

Chris.

Simple easy way:
Add an alias of "dmNews" to the navigation node that news articles should appear to be under.

Customizable complicated way:
Extend and override the getNavID function in dmNews (will be passed objectid+typename or stObject by different parts of FarCry).

You can also pass navid or navalias to the page as a URL variable to deal with edge cases.

Blair, that's the first I've heard of that simple method --- does that work for any content type by default: i.e., if its dmEvent, having the alias of dmEvent would work?

Thanks

So simple.  Thanks Blair!

This also worked for events by adding dmEvent as alias

Sorry :( We have a bit of a problem with documentation at the moment. It will work for any content type.

Blair,

You could have a look at the fact rule execute webskin. If it doesn't work that way you could change it so that it does.
