Hey everyone!

Quick question, in the "Latest Blog – Custom HTML Module" which is shown on the homepage (see attachment), how can I remove the Author (being Super User at the moment) and how can I choose to display the start of the text (first 20 words or 200 characters for example)?

Thanks in advance for any help 🙂

I mean the module as shown in the screenshot, which is located on the homepage (below right). How can I remove the author from being shown and how can I choose to already show the first words of the article below the title?

Thank you in advance!

Hi
This is default Joomla module and does not have option to set the intro text and hide authors . But you can customise the module using override in /templates/ja_healthcare/html/mod_articles_latest/default.php
this code is used to show the author

<span class="author">
            <i class="fa fa-user"></i><?php echo ($item->modified_by_name) ;?>
        </span>
    </li>

Thank you for the reply. I have given the module a bit more space so that there would be room to display the intro text. You cannot help me with this? There is no standard code that I could add to the default.php file to display intro text?

Regarding the author, can I remove this line of text that you mention? Or should I change something else? Unfortunately I do not know enough about programming to make adjustments.. 🙁

Hi
If you would like to remove the author , you can remove the author code from the PHP file .
Regarding add intro text in the article latest module , its default Joomla module does not offer the intro text option , you can raise your thread on Joomla forum for this customisation in default Joomla module .
