README

The silverstripe-news module implements two new page types for handling a typical basic news system: NewsHolder (the folder containing related news) and NewsPage (the page presenting a single news).

Every NewsHolder will have its own feed and by default it will render its children (supposedly all NewsPage instances) in a <dl> list.

• Should work out-of-the-box.
• Ready to use templates compatible with the silverstrap theme.
• Atom 1.0 feed for every NewsHolder instance: it can be accessed by specificaly requesting an application/atom+xml mime type at the NewsHolder URL or by accessing the feed news underneath it, e.g. http://mysite/news/feed/.
• Back-end fully localized.
• Author customizable for every NewsHolder instance.
• Author customizable for every NewsPage instance.

Installation

To install silverstripe-news you should proceed as usual: unpack or copy the directory tree inside your SilverStripe root directory and do a /dev/build/?flush.

If you use composer, you could just use the following command instead:

composer require entidi/silverstripe-news
