I've installed K2 and looked promising, but there are somethings I don't like. Actually I have the superblogger plugin, it allows me to decide which features to show in my content and I can load module positions to enhance my content with modules like adsense, sexy bookmarks and some others.

(BTW, I don't like to have diferent font sizes before readmore and after, that's one thing I don't like from superblogger and the lack of interest of JoomlaWorks in this plugin and one bug that happens when an article is not published and shows a 404 error in frontpage or category view)

With K2 I can't personalize the content in the way I want, at least not as easy. I need to know how can I disable features like "related video" and "image gallery" (they appear even when I haven't published a video or gallery). 


Also, I want to disable Ajax rating, font resizer, bookmarks, latest author articles. I want to load module positions too.

I guess I have to do those things in the PHP code, but I don't like to touch the code then update then modify again and repeat again, and make this for every site. So, I was wondering if there's a way to personalize my K2 content like in superblogger (I found nothing in the parameters).

Thanks for your reply.

I have searched either K2 documentation and K2Joom, but no luck. I think my best friend would be Wordpress for Joomla Component, but since corePHP haven't released version for WP 3.0, I decided to look around the CCK components from Joomla.

I cannot find easy ways to personalize K2 as actually I can do with superblogger. And, it worries me if I decide to migrate to next joomla's core content components or wordpress and K2 maybe isn't compatible with future versions of both CMS, but only compatible with future versions of K2 itself.

If there's an easy way to personalize K2, i would like someone get me in the right direction, because as is actually, it's not intuitive to get the info to personalize this component, I suggest making a better guidance for how to personalize K2.

Sorry for the Bad english.
