Internal & External Articles

Exposer not only allows you to display internal articles in a view, you can also include external articles. Clearly, for display within a grid, a list or the slideshow an article must be created. However, Exposer allows you to mix external and internal content by configuring the article's own URL A / B / C fields.

A quick overview

  1. Create your articles and let Exposer display them as a grid, slideshow or list.
    (See this chapter to learn more)
  2. Create a new article and navigate in the article editing in the tab Images and Links
  3. Now define an external URL (https://........) as URL A / B or C and assign a link text
  4. Open the Configuration module of the corresponding Exposer instance and navigate to the URL tab
  5. Set the option for the corresponding URL field to use as link
  6. Display we choose display Badge and as Text Source we choose Article URL Title
And that's all, the positioning of the badge is available in the tab of the respective layout. If no badge is displayed, check if the badge display is active for the respective layout. If the link does not work correctly make sure that you have entered the URL in the article edit screen including http.
If the corresponding URL field is filled with information for an article, Exposer will create an external link. If the field is empty, no badge is displayed for this article and the link refers to the article (or the modal if configured accordingly).
