Inline Editing
Text/HTML Module By Ron Raines on Monday, December 04, 2006 12:56 PM
The recent upgrade to the Text/HTML module added a new inline editing feature. Inline editing allows you to directly edit the module title and content. Just click on the module title or content and start typing. When you are done editing either press 'ESC' to cancel your changes or click somewhere out of the editing area to save them.

Inline editing only allows you to edit and format text content. Formatting is accomplished by using shortcut keys such as Ctrl-B for bold or Ctrl-C to copy.

Item expiration controlled globally/item template use
Annoucements Module By Ron Raines on Monday, November 27, 2006 1:05 PM

The duration of displayed items is now determined by how many days since the item publish date and is applied globally to all items within the module instead of the use of an expiration date per item.

The layout of the annoucement items is now based on a template that is applied to each individual Annoucement module. You can now change the appearance of the announcement item such as the title and body location, size, and color as well as any other type . The use of templates is for more advanced users familiar with HTML and the use of CSS.
