Hi,
I had made a custom module that extend k2tools module to show up Author description at the author list function.

Download attachement file and use install/unistall to upload module.

Take note that this will overwrite following files, if you had made some customizations to them:

modules\mod_k2_tools\helper.php
modules\mod_k2_tools\mod_k2_tools.xml
modules\mod_k2_tools\tmpl\authors.php
modules\mod_k2_tools\includes\calendarClass.php
modules\mod_k2_tools\index.html
language\en-GB\en-GB.mod_k2_tools.ini
language\es-ES\es-ES.mod_k2_tools.ini




Hope this work fine.
Thanks

Can you add a drop down menu choice to the Author menu.

Where exactly??

When creating a k2 tools module on the admin side It would be nice if one of the chocies in the Select module functionality was to create an authors select box like the one for category select box.

great mod thank you

Hi olsen! Nice work! This feature is very usefull!!!

I´m not a developer, but a Joomla! and K2 heavy user (Acctually I work on template development), and I have a question: I need to fix the number of authors that shows on k2_tools author list module. Can you help me to find a easy (and fast) way to make this possible?

Once again, congrats. for the work. I apreciate you attention!

Hi,
I had modify mod_k2_tools.php, mod_k2_tools.xml and tmpl/authors.php to limit authors shown. Its an easy hack to limit authors shown and not the best way to do it, but its something by now.

Just to remember that to exploit all the additions made by olsen, you have to install/unpack first mod_k2_tools_olsen.zip then mod_k2_tools_limitauthor.zip
Thanks to olsen for this nice customization!!
