Re: how can i tweak category view?

Ok, i think i found the file.

instalationdir/components/com_content/views/category/tmpl/default.php

but then , on lines 22 and 23 it has this:

Code: Select all

		$this->items =& $this->getItems();
		echo $this->loadTemplate('items');
where's that 'items' template?
I need to edit it

how can i tweak category view?

The category article list view shows a fancy table with a few columns, a filter form, pagination options, etc.
I want it to be a simple list instead. Only the links, nothing else.

I guess this should be made by editing a view file, right?
Which one?

Re: New to joomla coding - need tips for extension development

I've looked around the documentation wiki and i am getting more familiar with the available options. There's a good walk through the new 1.5 MVC framework. From what I've seen its kind of using other frameworks out there. That's ok for me, I am confortable using php mvc frameworks. I might go for th...

Re: New to joomla coding - need tips for extension development

Thanks rogue4angel. That was helpful. I would like to go for a module as it looks quite simple, but I am not sure that will give all the power I need. I need to create my own table database. According on this documentation page http://dev.joomla.org/component/option,com_jd-wiki/Itemid,/id,framework:...
