k2

Two updates in the same day! Woah! Well, to be honest it's 2.05 here in Italy, so the other update will be marked with yesterday's date, but anyway... As you may have inferred, anyway, I finally managed to test AiDaNews2 for K2 tonight and I want to share it to the world. The version number has been set to 2.0.4 to match the other modules, but anyway this is the first release. The module features all the bugfixes I added to AiDaNews2 1.5 and 1.7 in the previous days, excluding one little bug regarding css module suffixes that I'm going to correct with the next update (lazy...).

Anyway... this module lets you show your K2 articles "the AiDa way". If you compare it with the "standard" AiDaNews2 you'll soon notice some differences: you can use K2's own avatars, profiles and comments for istance, and there's even a tab that lets you set tags or attachments up! You can even limit the output and only show news that feature a certain tag... Possibilities are endless!

New tags: [tags], [fields], [attachments]. I believe they're pretty self-explanatory.

Mmh... now that I think about it, I believe that many of you don't know all the tags that AiDaNews2 supports... I have to update the docs as soon as possible. Anyway, here's a quick list:

  • [title]
  • [empty]
  • [readmore]
  • [hits]
  • [rating]
  • [author]
  • [image1]
  • [image2]
  • [image3]
  • [date]
  • [comments]
  • [category]

AiDaNews2 1.5 only:

  • [section]

AiDaNews2 for K2 only:

  • [attachments]
  • [fields]
  • [tags]

I hope this helps ;) I believe I'll go to bed now! If you have any request / complaint / suggestion to make, please leave a comment or send me an e-mail ;)

Quoting Naguchennai:
It is possible to call Specific filed? like
[fields (id )] field id?


Hi, no it's not possible at the moment. It's not possible in K2's latest news module either, but I may work on something similar in the future.
