JoomlaWorks "Ultimate Content Display" Module v1.1 [for Joomla! 1.5.x]

The "Ultimate Content Display" module by JoomlaWorks is a "super content retrieval" module and probably the only one you'll ever need!

It can fetch and display your Joomla! content or newsfeed items in any module position in 3 different ways. In a plain (unordered) list format, inside an ajax cross-fader or inside a jQuery-based cross-fader/slider! 3 unique ways to display your content or newsfeed items! So you can have for example a "latest news" side module, along with a cross fader box that retrieves content from a specific category dynamically and a content slider, acting as a "newsflash" box! Pretty cool, right?

The "Ultimate Content Display" module is the evolution of JoomlaWorks' popular "Ultimate AJAX Newsflash" and "Content Items Fading Scroller" modules and has been developed with ease of use and... practicality in mind! It's the kind of module you "set and forget", cause it simply works! Plus, it can help you create powerful Joomla! based portal websites, which require various types of "content" or "info" boxes.

Make sure you check out our official DEMO site to see the module in action.

Enjoy one more fine release from the folks at JoomlaWorks!

JWUCD_YES = Yes JWUCD_NO = No JWUCD_MODULE_CLASS_SUFFIX = Module Class Suffix JWUCD_MODULE_CLASS_SUFFIX_DESC = A suffix to be applied to the css class of the module (.moduletable), this allows individual module styling JWUCD_DISAVBLE_MODULE_CSS = Disable module's CSS (use external)? JWUCD_DISAVBLE_MODULE_CSS_DESC = Select whether to disable module's imported CSS styles or not.

JWUCD_CONTENT_DISPLAY_TYPE = Content display type JWUCD_CONTENT_DISPLAY_TYPE_DESC = How should we display our content? Highlights: 'Normal list' output an unordered -ul- list of items. The 'AJAX based cross fader' retrieves content dynamically, thus your web page loads faster. The jQuery fader/slider on the other hand provides a smoother fade and a cool 'slide' effect. JWUCD_CONTENT_DISPLAY_TYPE_VALUE1 = Normal list JWUCD_CONTENT_DISPLAY_TYPE_VALUE2 = AJAX based cross fader JWUCD_CONTENT_DISPLAY_TYPE_VALUE3 = jQuery based cross fader/slider JWUCD_UNIQUE_ID = Unique ID (required for the faders only) JWUCD_UNIQUE_ID_DESC = This ID must be unique and must only contain latin characters with no spaces or numbers. So keep it simple, like 'sidenews'! This option allows you to have multiple boxes inside your template and published in any position. JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_TYPE = Content source type JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_TYPE_DESC = The type of source to retrieve content from. After this step you need to specify 'content source ID(s)' below.

If you want to display content from multiple sources of the same type, simply write the specified IDs, seperated by a comma (e.g. 2,5,6). You must specify at least one ID in order for the module to work! JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING = Ordering JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_DESC = The order that content items will be presented (doesn't apply to Newsfeed Category/Newsfeed Item obviously!).

JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE1 = Most recent first JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE2 = Oldest first JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE3 = Title Alphabetical JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE4 = Title Reverse-Alphabetical JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE5 = Most Hits JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE6 = Least Hits JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE7 = Ordering JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_ORDERING_VALUE8 = Random JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_COUNT = Item count JWUCD_CONTENT_SOURCE_COUNT_DESC = The number of content/newsfeed items to display (default is 5).

JWUCD_ITEM_DISPLAY_SETTINGS_CREATIONDATE = Show item creation date JWUCD_ITEM_DISPLAY_SETTINGS_CREATIONDATE_DESC = Select whether to show item creation date or not.

JWUCD_ITEM_DISPLAY_SETTINGS_REMOVE_ATTR_IMAGES_DESC = Select this option to remove unwanted style atrributes from images, like width, height, color or any other attribute that some WYSIWYG editors add in excess. Recommended when you want to control image sizing with your template's CSS. JWUCD_ITEM_DISPLAY_SETTINGS_HTML_CLEANUP = HTML cleanup JWUCD_ITEM_DISPLAY_SETTINGS_HTML_CLEANUP_DESC = Do some HTML cleanup, especially when you limit the introtext by words or characters. This way you will not get 'unclosed' HTML tags like p (paragraph) that will cause your content to break. Use with caution! Allowed tags are: br, a, b, i, u, span.
