Hi. You need to clarify. Are you talking about appearance? The only thing you cannot do with K2 out of the box is provide the sort by menu. The rest is a matter of setup and template.

Hey Lefteris,
yeah it's all about the look and feel. The sort would be a bonus but not really that important as the page is just going to have 20 entries.
What i'm looking for is the slime one-line per entry look. I have used html templates before but layout is a bit different in php.
Guess i'll just have to learn :)
Just edit the category_item.php right?

Yes. Actually if your only concern is the columns you don't have to edit anything. There are options in the category edit page which allow you to configure a basic grid. Also since you are new to Joomla! and K2 i suggest that you take a read at getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates to learn how you can override K2 templates and styles without editing core files.

Thank you but the documentation you link to is next to useless, as is all the documentation in here, by the way. It's only a basic explaination of what template overrides are, not really how to do it ;)
But i will have a closer look at the component for the settings you have mentioned.

It is not useless. If you edit directly the files without making overrides you will lose your changes in future updates.

I meant no offense. What I wanted to say was that i already knew everything on that page.
Sorry for the mistake :ohmy:

Yes the columns i mentioned refer to the K2 items list. Since you want something like this inside the item you need to override item.php HTML output and add custom CSS rules .
