News Listings Widgets

Overview

There are several options for displaying your News content in a widget. Select "News" from "Add Existing Content," then click the "Add" button for the view you'd like to feature in a widget.

Notes

  • These options are separate from the default "News Archive" page. See Create News Items for more info. 
  • Due to website caching, if you make changes to the "Recent Stories" widget, you may not see the changes show up for some time after hitting "Save." See Website Cache and Flush Cache for more information.  
  • "Use Pager" option: 
    • On the "Grid" and "Thumbnail List" widgets (see below), the "Use pager" checkbox will be checked by default, and the pager will show up at the bottom of the widget if there are more content items available than the number of content items allowed in the "Items to Show" field. You can un-check this box to not show a pager.
    • If you will be featuring more than one Listing widget on the same page, and if the multiple Listing widgets will each have a pager, then you will need to put a number in the "use pager" field (a number other than 0, such as 1). This will distinguish the pagers from one another, allowing site visitors to select from each pager. (If the number isn't added to the "use pager" field, then selecting a number from one pager will select the same number from the other pager as well.)
