Just use a page list block to display the four newest pages in that section ;)

Hi,

Many thanks for your prompt reply, I have managed to work out the listing of the pages, however its how I get each article to appear in a separate column going across the page. As Gumby is a fully responsive framework I would like the 4 article summaries to go across the page when full width and then one above the other when viewed on a mobile.

Have attached a quick screen grab on the home page area.

Hope I'm making sense?

Cheers

To tackle this I would for one, use Page List Plus by SkyBlueSofa. And for two, I would build those areas into my page type. Page list plus has an option out of the box to skip the first x number of pages in the list, so you would end up with four different page lists in each of those areas showing the first four articles!

You can create a custom page_list block template for your design.

I don't think this is worth additional page areas in a theme.

As long as each list entry is wrapped in its own element (div or li for example), you can either use css columns for that element/class or float them left at 25% width or float them left with a fixed width calculated to be 25%.

With any of these you will probably need to add a clearfix afterwards.

So either apply some css to the existing template, or create a new block template with your wrapper elements, css and a clearfix built in.

Many thanks for your replies.

Think I've worked it out now....a break and a coffee works wonders too!

Cheers.

In the end it was pretty easy using a page list template and gumby styles.

Concrete5 just gets better and better the more you use it!

Thanks again for your prompt replies.....excellent community!
