News in Sidebar
A news feed from your website‘s news section can be shown in the right hand column. This is different to a Remote News Feed, which brings in news from an external website.
Example:
To add a News Feed to the right hand column:
- From the Site Admin Control Panel, click on Content Manager.
- From the ‘Add New Section‘ drop down list, select ‘News in Sidebar‘ and click on Add New Section.
- Ensure the News in Sidebar section is in the right hand menu (use drag and drop to move a section between menus).
- Right click on the News in Sidebar section and select Edit.
- There are two options on the Edit screen – (1) select the News section to feed from, and (2) set the maximum number of articles to display. Set your preferences and click on Save.
- Return to the Content Manager.
- Right click on the ‘News in Sidebar‘ section and this time select Configure from the menu.
- There are two options for how the News Feed appears in the sidebar – (1) select between showing news headlines or photos, and (2) whether to show the section name (eg. Latest News) as the title for the news feed. Make these selections and click on Save.
