Joomla news layout - layout

How do I display the latest news on my front page and titles (with links) of other news below it in Joomla 1.5.?
I also need to set a fixed number of others news.

You can use:
"Module Latest News" with option "count: 1" positioned above:
"Module Articles Category" with option "count: [YOUR_NUMBER+1]"
and using CSS hide first element of "Module Articles Category"

Just out of curiosity, if you are using standard Joomla articles, why wouldn't you use the standard Joomla Front Page Blog Layout menu item? This is pretty much what thatview is designed for and it wouldn't require any CSS to display the correct articles.

Link to inner section in Liferay Wiki portlet

In Liferay Wiki Portlet (version 6.2), using "creole" syntax, I can add a link to page simply typing its name inside square brackets like in Wikipedia.
[[New Page]]
How to add a link to a specific section of "New Page"?
In Wikipedia it's simply [[New Page#Section Title]], but in Liferay wiki I tried with same syntax but it re-directs me always a new page.
I see that in "New Page" aside "Section Title" heading is present a # that is a perma-link with the following pattern
mydomain.com/-/wiki/Main/New+Page/maximized#section-New+Page-Section+Title
I tried in many ways but... How to create a link to an inner section?
As far as I know Liferay's Creole does not implement linking to a section. The creole help links to this more complete documentation which also does not mention this as part of their markup.
You might have to extend the syntax on your own or use the full link.

How to manage "Meta title" and "Meta description" for pages in Drupal 8?

Just wanted to confirm that is there any stable version is released for "Meta title and Description" of a node in Drupal 8?
If yes then please recommend. I have a simple website of basic pages and few blogs for the same and for homepage I want to add "Meta title" and "Meta description".
So please suggest any appropriate option for DRUPAL 8.
Thanks in advance.
I use the "Metatag" module: https://www.drupal.org/project/metatag
It works great and I have no problems with it at all.
EDIT:
Just download and enable the module. Then add a new "Meta tags" field to your desired node type and now you should see the field when you edit the node.
Also important: under /admin/config/search/metatag you should be able to configure default meta values. So for example if your Title and Description follow always the same pattern like "{Node Title} | {Site Name}" for example, you can define it there. This way you don't have to set all the meta data yourself for every node.
Also settings for Homepage/Frontpage/Category Page etc. can be adjusted there.
Hope this helps.
If you use metatag module and create pages with page manager, here is a patch you can apply and enable a new module metatag_page_manager. You can now configure meta tags for panel pages under /admin/config/search/metatag.

I have just bought the King Products Joomla LMS component - Professional version. How can I change the front end style?

The front end of the Joomla LMS component from King Products is supposed to allow me to change the style that is used in the front end of the site.
However, I am unable to find how change it.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
This Joomla LMS is one of the best choices, it has far more features than any other on the market. In the admin section of the component, if using Joomla 2.5 OR 3+ click options.
you will be taken to the component config page.
There are three tabs.
On the LMS King main preferences tab, you will see the option "Template Style"
These are for the front end style. I like the "guru" style the best.
While you're there, you can set the admin styles too in the "Admin Color" option. I like the "Modern excellence" style.
Good Luck.

HTML Widget on many pages - Orchard CMS

I have an HTML widget in the after-content section which will be displayed on 7 pages out of 12. I was reading up on it but didn't find anything except people mentioning rules, I went through the documentation and looked at using "or" rule with url("~/page1") like url("~/page2") or url("~/page3") so on. Will this not show all widgets on all pages? i just want to show one html widget at the bottom of many pages.
Thanks,
Adil
You should create a new layer "MyNewLayer" and then add your rule(s) there. Then, place the widget to be shown on this layer.

Orchard breadcrumbs not working with Taxonomies

I'm using Orchard 1.6 and I'm trying to get my breadcrumb widget working for all pages and taxonomies.
For the pages, when a page is selected, the breadcrumbs work as expected:
Home > My Page > My Sub Page
However, as part of this menu (the main menu, as set up by the 'Default' Orchard recipe), I have added some Taxonomy terms (by adding the 'Menu' part to my taxonomy term content type).
When I view the term page (front end), the breadcrumbs don't render as breadcrumbs, but the full menu instead.
What I would like to know is: How do I make the breadcrumbs recognise the taxonomies and render correctly?
Is there a part I need to add to a specific content type?
For now I need to use the dirty, dirty work-around of using a HTML widget; naturally I would prefer an actual solution.
Thanks in advance!
