I’m trying to format a news page identically to the way the Uber University demo page is formatted if you click on the “News & Events” button from the menu.

Is there some requirement of how articles must be set up to appear in this fashion?

I followed the instructions to create the page.

Hi

It is a specific JA Acm module ( spotlight-style1) taking content from News category

Then publish Articles category modules ( news and events category ) in the defined positions (university-sl-news )

publish Articles category modules ( blog category ) in the defined positions (university-sl-blog )

Custom-html ( Upcoming Events )module with content below to university-sl-banner position

<p>Our mission is to create an environment that encourages frequent networking and speaking events, and coworking space.</p>
<div class="events-wrap"><img src="images/joomlart/university/misc/event-bg.jpg" alt="Events" />
<ul class="event-list">
<li class="event">
<div class="event-ct"><span class="date-time"> <strong class="date">23</strong> <strong class="month-year">Oct</strong> </span>
<p>University's upcoming campus events.</p>
</div>
</li>
<li class="event">
<div class="event-ct"><span class="date-time"> <strong class="date">31</strong> <strong class="month-year">Oct</strong> </span>
<p>Talks and study information events.</p>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>

Pavit,

I tried using position-1 for things tagged ‘news’ following your directions. I can’t seem to get the article to display correctly. It seems to link to itself. Mind taking a look at my configuration?

Yes, it is showing, but clicking the link doesn’t take me to an article.

Pavit,

I ran out of time to get this working, I reverted to just putting together an HTML-based news page in an article. I appreciate your work, but I’ve got to wait awhile to work on this. We’ve been working in production, I need to set up a dev before we proceed. I’ll mark this one ‘closed’ until we can pursue in the future.
