    • Yahoo style categories on HomePage

    Posted by Piers Young posts: 22 United Kingdom

    Hi
    (I've had a look around but can;t see any posts addressing/asking this, so apologies in advance if it's already been covered.)
    What I'm trying to do is change the homepage of my tiki so that part of it has a layout of the categories on the site.

    e.g.

    Homepage

    Welcome blah blah

    Category 1 (x objects)
    SubCat a (y objects), SubCat b (z objects), ...

    - much like the old yahoo directory approach.

    And frustratingly much like the current tiki directory approach!

    So really,
    a) Is there a way for me to get the functionality of the directory (but with internal links)?
    b) incorporate that into my homepage?

    Does that make sense?? Thanks masses for any help

    In admin ->general, you can give a homepage .. It can be /tiki-browse_categories.php

    You can also create a plugin or a module that list the category to be able to insert it in any wiki page . Try the wiki plugin CATEGORY- perhaps it will be ok for you.
