NeoLatestNews Module

NeoLatestNews is a module displaying news, as well as the native module of Joomla: mod_latestnews. What differentiates it from the latter is that you can manage how to display your news such as title, date, intro text thus its maximum length.

It also makes it possible to choose the type of opening for the article, as well as the number of articles appearing in the module.

NeoLatestNews is a free module and is compatible with Joomla 1.5.X and 1.0.X versions.

This module provided the capabilities I was looking for. Like two other reviewers previously said it was missing compatibility with most SEO and SEF providers and the admin interface wasn't in English. I spent a little bit of time editing the xml file and translating the admin interface so it is much easier to understand now. I also found a forum post from another user who has modified it to be used with sh404SEF.

Easy install and easy config.
All option works ok.
Major problem: this module don't work with any SEF solution from joomla 1.5 !
I try all sef solution, from joomla native to latest ACEsef, artio and sh and this module DON'T work.
I liked this translation but all the admin settings are in french making it difficult to set-up properly.

Hopefully the next version will have that fixed.
Man, it actually works!!! (as opposed to the rest of the ones published here), Titles are linked, intros are clean (without any html/css traces), lot's of extra really nice features like date, linkable cat names, image thumbs. The XML file needs an English translation from French though but who cares it will only take you a few minutes to translate with an online dictionary. A+
