I have started to use the Teline III template.

There are two things though that I am missing to make the site complete. I figure these items may need to be installed but the level of experience here seems like it would be a good place to start.

1. Is there any method to allow inputting of articles that are from other web sites. Not feeds, just links. So when I input an article, that is on an external site, I just want to input a link and instead of going to a section, the link would open the external article in a new window. I want this to happen solely within a sub section, not within a section that displays articles normally.

2. Since we are breaking down our sections based on continents, there are some articles that may be actually international. I figured the best way to overcome people missing articles would be to have a “WORLD” section where all articles are displayed based on date (most recent to oldest). Any ideas?

2. in the menu item linked to that section “World”, open the “Parameters (Advanced)” Tab and set the Primary Order to “Most recent first”. Hope it helps.

Hi, please try to search around at JED to find if there is such an extension. Otherwise, you need to develop it from scracth i am afraid
