Hi,

I have the next problem. When I link a menu item to two categories, all items are shown with full text, but not with intro text only?!?! If i link only one category all is ok, but more than one shows full articles
I set for both categories to use intro text

How can I solve this (except adding Read more line in each article) ?

Thank you in advance

You can hardcode a limit in your overrides.
Although the most optimal solution would be to use the read more button.

More on overrides can be found here: getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates

Thanks Krikor,

where should I hardcore it, in category.php of my template ?

It's the category-item.php file.

Thank you

You 're welcome.

Hi
I face the same problem when I see authors`s list of articles, as I dont use Read more in items I only use intro text limit form category configuration.
I am not familiar with php so can you please advise me in witch line of category-item.php file should I add the line of code you have suggested?

I have check post #146062 that gives the line in witch I should add the code, but my file does not contain <div class="catItemIntroText">

Please note that I have noticed a difference between com_k2 files and those in template/html. I have replaced them and the layout of my template became a mess, so I used those of the template again.

I hope you can help me with this
best regards

This post will help you understand K2's files and overrides.
The file you need to edit is user.php and the code for that file is:
