featured ride...

[rgsmdnr]

im very new to all of this. i run an auto forum and i would like to have a featured ride section on the board. what iam looking for is this...

a small module on the main page (index.php) with a teaser of who/what the featured ride is, when clicked, it would go to featured.php with all the same smaller modules on the side, and the complete featured ride article in the center... what is the easist way of doing this?

thanks,

Sounds like you're going to need some basic knowledge of PHP and such in order to create something like that.

i have basic knowledge... just need a little push in the right direction as all...

You would just need to create a file to pull the data and such then, add that file as a module, then follow the instructions in the link below to integrate your featured.php file with the CMPS.

i cant seem to get it to work. i would like it to just pull a post from a hidden section on the board, kind of like how the news works...

Rgsmdnr, for a head start look for the article module from TomM. I think that'd be a good basis for what you're after.
