Can news show pro support these two features?

First of all I would like to thank the Gavick team for this module! I've just started using it and I would like to know if I can do the following:


1. Is it possible to display only categories (K2 or joomla or virtuemart)? (their images and their descriptions)
2. is it possible after a click on an article (K2 article for example), this article opens somehow with javascript (lightbox etc...) and not in separate page?
The first one is really important for me.

My goal is to have one instance of gavick news pro to display the categories and then one instance for each category, which displays in a separate page, where its items open with javascript inside the page of the category.

Thank you in advance!

Well I 've decided that I want to use it only to display the K2 categories and then i have something else in mind.

So I'm asking again if somebody can help, is it possible to display only K2 categories and not their articles? just a "yes" or "no" or a link would be excellent!

Thank you people keep up the good work!

Hi

Please use %CATEGORY in additional info and simply show only this info. But shouldn't You use a different module if You want only such a small thing from it ?

Thank you for your answer,

If the module could show the category image and description it would be perfect! However the method you suggested does shows only the category title. So I'm trying to figure out the code and find the table inside the database that stores the categories. Any guideline to help me with the code would be appreciated!!

Extra question: Can the module be loaded in the content somehow, in the description of a K2 category for example with a parameter which describes the articles source?

Well, the file which handles the K2 is the "gk.source.k2.php" and I'm trying to hack the code so that it displays only categories their image ad their description.

I changed "k2_items" to "k2_categories" so that the mysql query searches in the database table "jos_k2_categories" an then
I kept the "ID"
renamed "content.title" to "content.name",
"content.introtext" to "content.description" and
removed the other stuff to test it but no luck so far.

Hi

I'm affraid this is not gonna work like that. SQL queries are sensitive. And this module is prepared for completly different thing, so most probably You need to use a different one.

I can make You any module You like. In my private time, for additional payment of course. Just mail me if You are interested.
