List Articles From some Categories + "created By" And/or "created by alias" fiel
- Posted by Pierfrancesco (6) Offline
Hi I'm using the MINIFRONTPAGE Module (FREE Version) to list article with Image + TITLE + DATE as you can see below:
prnt.sc/nquSuzLF7f3B
I'm looking a WAY to show close to the date or below or somewhere else even the "created by" and/or "created by alias" field from the article content.
As per you know how is this possible, using MINIFRONTPAGE MODULE ?
THX for support!

OK, but I need to use the "created by ALIAS" that is different im my articles.
Can I create an ecception on code or a correction on code in order to ADD the field for "created by alias" instead of "author" field ?

I set the SHOW AUTHOR flag and it already show the "created by alias" field as per JOOMLA core beheaviur.
So I think is solved!
One question.
Do you have a GUIDE to create new THEME ?

How can I ADD more or customize these ?

Yes, if an Author Alias value is existed, Mini Frontpage will display it instead the author name
At the moment, there is no guideline. Basically, it requires modifying the default PHP and XML files. However, I do not recommend this approach, as the changes will be overwritten during installing new updatesInstead, I recommend using a template override. Basically you event can also create a new theme using this method. You may follow the video tutorial here:Do you have a GUIDE to create new THEME ?
(the video uses Joomla 3, but the concept is essentially the same for Joomla 4, 5 and 6)

You can use a template override for major or more radical changes. If you only want to make CSS-related changes, you can do so by adding your CSS code in the CSS adjustment section
