  Hey guys, the version im using is 0.7.6.4 and i have to say, i love it, but there are a few minor changes that i would love to see. a:more blocks, my site is a gaming site and we like all our little blocks for teamspeak/vent and also server status block. I know there are some out there but they aren't all that good. b:please,please,please work on those tutorials. Im a complete newb when it comes to all this, ive got a little experience but not a whole lot, we need like a complete dummies guide or something. c:paypal module/block, havent been able to find one yet, would be nice if it came with the package though :).
  I cant think of any more, but if i do im sure i will let you all know lol.

  I'd like to see more gaming modules as well. I believe such things would be made by third party's though.
  
  Also, have you seen IR's paypal module?

  Are you asking how to include blocks of content for your site? Note, a block of content can include content generated internally from a module or can be content created within the block itself -- say a quick link to a teamspeak tool etc. Also an HTML block can include any allowed HTML you've preset through the setting HTML options tool.
  
  So not sure what you're asking but let us know and maybe someone can write something on the Wiki to help you and others in the future. :)

  Hi vworld,
  I am having the same problem with magikfwt. I am looking for a block which can display a content dynamically, say its like a latest news or announcement. I have been looking around in PostNuke features, but there's no way to find any. Can anyone help?

  ue_elly -- I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Can you provide examples? If you need to include a block of the latest news items then here are the steps:
  
  1. Login as site admin
  2. Choose Admin
  3. Choose Blocks
  4. Click on "new block"
  5. You're presented with a form -- fill in the 'title', choose the kind of block you want from the pull-down menu. In this case you'll want to select "Core/Past Articles". Then next choose where you want to place the block on the page from the 'position' pull-down menu. (Note there are three default positions -- but depending on your theme you'll be able to place this block in other designer defined block positions)
  6. Click "Update"
  7. Once this is completed then you'll see a few other fields where you can customize how many articles are displayed. Define this and then click "update" again.
  
  If you'd like to display specific articles from differenct topics or categories then choose "Core/Stories" from the block pull-down. Then once you've selected "update" then you'll be presented with several self-explanatory fields where you can choose what to display in the block.
  
  I hope this helps.
  
  Regards,
  
  Vanessa

  Hi Vanessa,
  
  Here's the description of my home page :
  Left block -> Dynamic Menu
  Center block -> Pagesetter
  Right -> Nothing
  
  My Pagesetter page for the center block content alot of blocks(blocks here is Pagesetter blocks), and I want a dynamic announcement like Core/Stories to appear in one of the Pagesetter blocks. Is it possible?
  
  Thanks for your help.

  Note, this question is in the wrong place but I'll try to clarify.
  
  You'd like to show one of your publication types in a block? Note, when in doubt for Pagesetter you should really read the manual (http://www.elfisk.dk)
  
  There are several Pagesetter blocks but it is not Core/Stories -- this pulls the content from the default News Module. So in order to pull your titles to articles in Pagesetter you'll need to use one of the Pagesetter blocks, but again please check the Pagesetter manual for more info on this topic.
