Arrangement of content in each Article? Can't Post

Hi,

I need to re-arrange the content of each article to "streamline" the page.

Instead of what you see in the screenshot thats attached, I need it to look like this:



Price Update Supplier Code (< this is linked) June 14, 2008 - 10:21:01 AM

This file contains the price update supplier codes.

Price Update Supplier Code (< this is linked) June 14, 2008 - 10:21:01 AM

This file contains the price update supplier codes.



Also, I need to eliminate the following:

1) "posted in: Price Updates" content.

2) The gray rectangular background with the clock face, "read more", etc. content as well.

Could one of you experts slowly and "step by step" guide me through this transformation please?

Thanks

Simply open your articlePage template and rearrange as needed.

Thanks for the response. I'm not able to see where or what file "exactly" I'm supposed to modify.

This is not by any means my strong suit, but I've been asked to do this and I'm trying to learn.

Hi TnMountainMan,

Thanks for posting!

From what you've outlined here it sounds like you're actually working on the index pages that will display a list of articles. If this is the case, here are the three template files that will display a list of articles:

/templates/articleLists/globalIndex.html - Used for index page (/artman2/publish/index.shtml)
/templates/articleLists/categoryIndex.html - Used for category index pages (/artman2/publish/CATEGORY/index.shtml)
/templates/searchEngine/searchResults.html - Used for the search results

In each of these files you'll want to look for the block of code that looks like this:

<!-- templatecell : articleRow -->
CODE GOES HERE
<!-- /templatecell : articleRow -->

The "articleRow" templatecell is the block of code that outputs each article, and where you see "CODE GOES HERE" that's where the code currently is that will output the article. You can tweak this code and modify it to output the details you'd like to see on the article page.

I hope this helps! Smile

Cheers,
