Displaying by Item Image was created by Rhianon Hoffman
Hi,I love K2 - it's opened up complex blogging for me in Joomla.  A question though - would it be possible to display only item images that would then click through to the full article? If so, would it be complicated to get execute? An example of what I mean can be found here, on a site built with Drupal: theresurgence.com

 

Thanks so much,

Seth

Hi Seth Hoffman,

 

Yes, it's possible. In the K2 parameters setting for the category. Just set the item view listing in category options to just show the image and hide the rest that you don't want to show.

Hi Kannan,I implimented the change so it displays by image without the content.  One other thing I'd like to do is put the title/author/date below the image.   You can see how they do it on that resurgence site (theresurgence.com) and see the attached image for how it's displaying on mine.  Is it possible to display it like that?

Thanks for any help,Seth

Hi Seth Hoffman,

 

Yes, you can do it. I would advise you to make use of the excellent MVC feature in K2. You can read more about templating and overrides here

 

I did not test this but you can try editing the category_item.php (from the template override folder)

 

Just bring down the contents in the <div class="catItemHeader"> below the <div class="catItemBody">
