Hi,
How can I have joomla's native (+overridden) category blog layout in a module?
I need to have Article Layout as menu item type. And a category blog layout underneath it.
Thank you - Last Edit: 14 years 5 months ago by David Landau.

Hi thanks for the assistance,
I understand that this gantry customization Henning created is in order to display the mainconent in a module position.
But what I need Is to link to an article and then get the article with a category blog layout underneath it.
I am trying to create a navigation in my website that would be as follows:
Article
Introtexts+ readmore
-Article
-Introtexts+ readmore
--Article
--Introtexts+ readmore
---Article
---Introtexts+ readmore
----...
----...
When clicking on readmore you get the full Article and underneath it you get the Introtext and the readmore

Can you post a link to your site?
Joomla's core Category or Section Blog layout shows the Intro Text and Read More but when you view the full article, it shows just that article. If you need to have the full article shown, then have a blog list of the articles underneath it, you'll have to put a main content area module that shows a blog layout under the main content area that shows the article.

I don't know of a module that does this unless you wanted to use the RSS feed for that category and a feed reader extensions that shows article titles and intros.
You can always try this like I mentioned above:
