Hello,

i need an little adjustment from the ja-side-news module. I want to use the metadata description as the describtion under the picture and the date. Like the “City-Immobilie in 1a-Lage…” Text in the picture. The textfield i like to use is Beschreibung from Metadata (Picture2)

Thanks in advance
Oliver

Hi,

It’s customize modules and you need change code of modules. You can view “helper.php” file and modify it.

Hi MoonSailer,

you meant /modules/mod_jasidenews/helper.php right? I see where the php gets the article and the image and everything. And i found where the $title gets trimed e.g. row 542. But i didn’t get the row where i could change the description text form content to meta describtion and which variable that data has.

I would appriciate your help.

Hi pressmar,

Let me guide you to edit the file “/modules/mod_jasidenews/helper.php”, now I found a simpler way to solve the problem.

Open file : “templates/ja_puresite/html/mod_jasidenews/default.php” find :
[PHP]
<div class=”article-intro”>
<?php echo $helper->trimString( strip_tags($item->introtext), $descMaxChars); ?>
</div>
[/PHP]

change it to :

[PHP]
<div class=”article-intro”>
<?php echo $helper->trimString( strip_tags($item->metadesc), $descMaxChars); ?>
</div>
[/PHP]
