Description

With Articles Anywhere you can place an article anywhere in your site, including inside 3rd party components, modules and even inside other articles.

Security settings

You can enable / disable Articles Anywhere in articles (and sections/categories), components and everwhere else (including articles) separately.

For articles, you can also set a minimum user group level. This means that Articles Anywhere only works in articles with an author that has your desired level or higher. You might not want your frontend authors to have the option to include articles (and potentially mess up your site).

Syntax

You can place article details using the title, alias or id of the article:

{article Some article}...{/article}
{article some-article}...{/article}
{article 123}...{/article}

Within those tags you can place different tags to place different article data/details:

{datatype}

You can choose from these datatypes

• text (the entire text: introtext+fulltext)
• readmore (a read more link)
• url (the url to the article)
• introtext
• fulltext (the text part below the read more bar)
• id
• title
• or any other data available (must match the column name in the database)

When showing text (all text, introtext or fulltext), you can also make the tag only show a certain amount of characters. Tags and images are not counted, only the text.
For example, to show the first 100 characters of the entire text:

{text:100}

When showing the read more link, you can also overrule the standar "Read more..." text.
For example, if you want the text 'Please read on!' to link to the article:

{readmore:Please read on!}

Examples

Example: title, intro, read more link

{article 123}{title}
{introtext}
{readmore:>> READ MORE >>}{/article}

Example in HTML: title with link to article, first 120 characters of (entire) text.
(For use in HTML view of your editor)

{article 123}<h2><a href="{url}">{title}</a></h2>
{text:120}{/article}
