How to display a module with one article

luis · 18.04.2004, 21:02

I have a particular module that I just want to appear with some articles.
This articles belong to a certain category that has a lot of articles. But I want the module to load only with some of them...

Anyone has dealt with this before? Or any hint on how to accomplish this?

Well.. one trick would be to create a new menu link (either blog_category or category) and assign your module to that link page.

Other than that, I haven't tried.

HTH.

Thanks for your reply

Humm... your solution imposes that first I move the target articles to a new category and then "create a new menu link", otherwise I'll get the module in all the category's articles again.

Unfortunately, that's all that I can think of at the moment.

Sorry if that didn't help.

Try the solution discussed here:

Its the only real way to associate Modules to items.
Basically it means calling the module from within your content item/article

Currently the way mambo works is that Modules can only be attached to menu items, which are referred to as pages.
