Template front page was created by christopher eden
HiOn the front page of my site, which is a template purchased from youjoomla.com, I have images linked to articles that are now in K2 format. The menu points to the new K2 articles but the images (using the youjoomla news flash module) point to the old format even though the article number is the same.Any ideas on how I could change this to point the articles to the new K2 format?

Should look like this:

www.oleonline.com/discover-spain/castilla-leon/avilaprovince

Looks like this:

www.oleonline.com/component/content/article/41-castilla-leon/64-avilaprovince-

when clicked through front page image on:

www.oleonline.com (image for Ávila is down the page a bit)

BY the way, the address for the latter link changed automatically when K2 was installed. Before this, the address looked like the former.

Thanks for getting back.

Ok, after much searching I find that I need a module that lets me put an image and the intro text on the front page. I've searched the Joomla extensions and the closest I've come to it is CaptifyContent by Joomla Bamboo but that doesn't appear to allow me to select an image plus introduction text.

Anyone got a suggestion as to a news module that works with K2 and allows the positioning of an image with some text?

Just as a close to this thread, if anyone has the same problem as me, a newbie to K2 and rapidly becoming a convert, I found the module I needed. It's called Aidanews and positions a smart and very configurable module directly onto your page.

Thanks
