dddd dd MMMM yyyy gives Tuesday 15 January 2008

I'm in state to give you a link with to a site which is essentially composed of NewsArticle with templates. This could gives some good ideas. I'll post the link the next week when releasing in production.

Hello,

[CREATEDATE:dddd dd MMMM yyyy] don't work on Comment.item.html. Should be parsed by token parser but seems to be a missed token here.

Cheers,

Sébastien

Relative to [HASLINK][/HASLINK] :

[HASLINKEDARTICLE][/HASLINKEDARTICLE] : this could be used on view.item to show a link "Read original article" or on listing for directly redirect to the orginal article.

[HASLINKEDFILE][/HASLINKEDFILE] : if the article have a linked file : this could be used on view.item or list.item in order to show a download file buton.

works with [HASNOLINK][/HASNOLINK]

For example :

[HASLINKEDARTICLE]
< a href="[LINK]">[TITLE] (external article)< /a >
[/HASLINKEDARTICLE]

[HASLINKEDFILE]
< a href="[LINK]"> < img scr="MydownloadButon.png" /> < /a >
[/HASLINKEDFILE]

[HASNOLINK]
< a href="[ARTICLELINK]">[TITLE] (internal article)< /a >
[/HASNOLINK]

That is a great idea with HASLINKEDFILE. As long as it supports the secure storage in the file manager I am happy.

I, too, would love to see something like this.  Sometimes an article will have a link to a file, sometimes a link to a URL, sometimes it might have details, and sometimes it might have nothing.  It would be nice to be able to use these.

I think it also might be a good idea to add [NOTHAS...] to be able to create If/Then type scenarios.

Alignment is a design aspect and it really belongs in the template rather than in the token.

Edit your template file (either via the module menu or directly on the file system in the module's own templates folder) and add an alignment attribute or style to the tag that contains the token.

E.g. if [IMAGE] is sitting in a table cell then add align="left" to the TD tag

This is of course easier said than done if you're not familiar with these tasks... so ask again if it doesn't make sense.

I've harrassed Scott more than once about fixed-ratio thumbnail cropping because it vastly improves the look af a thumbnail gallery and also matches what all the places like Flickr do. I wouldn't want thumbs to be stretched, just cropped to a set size.

Scott, is there a chance this might make it into SG one day?
