Articles Anywhere is a plugin that allows you to insert articles anywhere on your site. So you can place articles inside modules or in other components or where ever.
You can place articles using the syntax:
* Using the title of the article: {article Some article}...{/article}
* Using the alias of the article: {article some-article}...{/article}
* Using the id of the module: {article 123}...{/article}
Within those tags you can place different tags to place different article data/details:
* {text} (the entire text: introtext+fulltext)
* {readmore} (a read more link)
* {url} (the url to the article)
* {link}...{/link} (tags to add a link to the article to anything within the tags)
* {introtext}
* {fulltext}
* {title}
* {id}
* Or any other data available (must match the column name in the database)
When showing text (all text, introtext or fulltext), you can also make the tag only show a certain amount of characters:
{text:100} (shows the first 100 characters of the entire text)
When showing read more link, you can also overrule the standard "Read more..." text:
{readmore:Please read on!}
Articles Anywhere also comes with an editor button to make inserting these tags easy.

I LOVE this plugin. Love it. I'd downloaded these guys other plugin, modules anywhere and that was great, so when I needed to do the opposite thing and put one article of my choosing in a module position, this was the first extension I downloaded. Brilliant just like modules anywhere. It uses the same syntax (which is written down in the plugin under the plugin manager if you forget these things like I do) and it just works right out of the box. No configuring, no confusing set up. So easy!
This is an excellent extension. It's easy to use and works as advertised. I do have one question: Is it possible to use it to display archived articles in a module? That would make some organizational aspects of my site a bit easier. That's not a complaint, though. Thanks for the great work!
This is a fantastic way to include an article in a module position. I have a module with links in it that mimic a menu. This menu needs to change often and the client doesn't need administrator access to change it unlike if they needed to change the module directly. It's brilliant. Well done AGAIN Peter! Keep up the great work!!

Cool, never though of using it for that purpose :)
Already using it on a number of client sites & it's great!
Being able to place an article inside a module or category description helps prevent novice editors from needing back-end access. This plugin allows us to manage site areas more effectively. Great work!
One thing to anyone using the older JCE 154 -- update to the latest, cause this thing won't work if you don't.

Thanks for the review and glad you like it :)
JCE 154 causes problems for all editor buttons (even the core read more button). So yeah, everyone using JCE should make sure they use the latest version.
