    Question re Home Page Display of Articles

    Posted 16 years 3 months ago
    • I am currently building a website at members.nswspc.jhonline.net . The article in the centre column that is currently visible on the Home page is visible to the Public. There are other articles that become visible in the centre column when you login. Is there a way of not displaying the pre-login article once a person has logged in, but showing all the other articles?

    • Hi John - looks like we're in the same place geographically - imagine that.

      There's not really a way to do what you're after except with a little custom code.

      What you could try is creating a custom module holder that is bracketed by a little bit of code which looks for a user's id. If no id, display the module holder, if id don't.

      That's probably the easiest way I can think to get around the problem.

    • Thanks for that unfortunate bit of news. :cry: For once, I was hoping that I had just missed something in the Joomla Admin section.

    • Isn't it strange ?!!? I think it's been a lovely summer here thus far.

      From what I've been reading, 1.6 will make this a Joomla Admin issue - I can't wait.

      It's really not a hard block of code in the meantime. If you need a hand, just drop me a PM.
