Hi Olivier,

I purchased the 'Latest News Enhanced Extended' module a few weeks ago. I'm using it on a customers site : www.levenshuis.nu (menu-item 'Activiteiten > Kalender' and homepage). On the 'Activiteiten > Kalender' page I have an issue with the animations. I read that for now only 1 item is dipslayed at the same time when using them. So I made a small workaround to have 2 activities published one next to the other by putting them together in 1 article and separating them using some CSS to show the visitor there are 2 activities displayed on the page. When using any animation type - except for the 'Simple fade', the first article displays, it moves away (according to the selected animation) but the second article doesn't display. There is just an empty page for the time set to go to the next article and when that time has elapsed, the first article displays again. Now I'm using the 'Simple fade' animation to avoid the problem. But for the visitors it would be better to see the article move and the next one come, so I'd prefer to use another animation (Slide - 2 arrow controls right bottom). I'd customize the arrows to make them look like the ones you see atm on that page (but are only a visual item without any functionality).
It would be great to hear soon from you so I can solve this problem and get the module work as the customer expects it to work.
This said, I must admit that I like the extension very much. I'm looking forward to be able to display more than one article at a time in the same window using animations too. That would make it complete and much easier to work with than all the others I checked out on the JED.

Best regards

Hi Olivier,

Thx for the info. I'm looking forward to the next release. But I think there is a little misundestanding in the issue occuring atm. In the setup now only one article is showing at the time. In total there are 2 articles in this category. So when using one of the animations, it should display each of those 2 articles for the time set in the animation-settings. But the only animation that works correct is the 'Simple fade'. When selecting one of the other animations, only the first article shows. After the time set in the animation-settings it moves aside and the second article should appear. But that doesn't happen, and an empty page shows. After the time set in the animation-settings passes, the first article shows again. And so on.
Any ideas why this is happening ? (I don't get any JQuery errors).
I have also another question about the order in which the articles should show. I selected the 'Desc' option, so the module should show the articles in the selected category in descending order. But the articles aren't shown in that order. It appears to be a random order (but always the same). I tried all the other options but nothing worked the right way. As the displayed articles are about activities organised by the customer, it is important to display them in the correct order.

Many thx for helping out !

Best regards

Hi Olivier,

Now it is set to animate the articles in 1 category (2 articles in total) using 'Simple fade'. But it would be much better for the visitors if I could use the animation 'Slide with 2 buttons downright'.

About the order of the articles :

URL : www.levenshuis.nu (item 'Kalender')

In the article manager (admin side) these articles are ordered in a certain way. But of course there is also the article-id. Where is the module ordering on ?

Best regards
