Article in article [SOLVED]

Yes, I did, the method ggppdk specified above.

1. change layout PARAMETER of the module to be 'news'
2. set number of featured items to be zero
3. at display items list slider , select the fields of that you want to display, be careful put the field names in the standard box, not in the featured box

Hi ggppdk,

Thanks, that works — it only shows the excerpt, though, and it strips away HTML. Is that a setting I've got wrong?

Strips HTML on text?

Since usually the module is in tight place, it does this to allow proper display ..., no option to disable, i think to add one

Regards

Yes, what I mean is, the content I have to show includes a table with some tabular data — but when HTML is stripped away, all this content disappears.

I disappears or it is cropped? by the limit of characters?

Actually both — I've figured out how to allow more characters, but the HTML tags are still stripped away, e.g. h3 tags.

The stripping of HTML is done by default, we could add an option not strip, i guess, just it is a little dangerous because when set to off , sooner or later someone will write a page that doesnot fit, ... mmm

Hmm, okay, then it doesn't really solve my problem. I need it to show the article with all the HTML — images are stripped away, too. Thanks for your help, though.

These are the lines that strip and cut text
mod_flexicontent/helper.php

i will add an option not to strip html ...
after thought i believe you are right there should be an option not to strip html of the item (article) text, like there is an option where to cut the text.

But note that if we don't strip html tags we can no longer cut at a maximum number of characters, since we now will have opening and closing html tags, so the full text will appear when you set not to strip tags ...

The new option will be on next download of v1.5.6 beta/final
