With JA News, I want to display all the articles in one Category of a Section without a Read more… link, and in the rest of the Categories in that Section I want to have with a Read more… link. Selecting Show or Hide for the Read more… link displays or hides it for all the articles in the Section, but I just want it to be displayed for the articles in certain Categories. To do this I was trying to assign two different templates to the same Section (one template for some Categories, and the other of the other Categories in that Section), but can’t figure out how to do this. Does anyone know how this can be done?

Sorry, I guess this question should have gone in the component forum. I’m using the JA News Manager under the Components menu in Joomla. Essentially what I’d like to do is, within a particular Section, have different blog layout templates assigned to the various Categories. In my case, I have a News Section, and within it I have 3 categories. I would like to have one category display 5 articles without Read more… links and no picture, and the other 2 categories just display 2 articles with Read more… links and pictures.

I think you can only assign JA News templates to sections, not categories.
