Snippets of former blogarticles

Hello,

 

is it possible to use snippets of former blogarticles on the blog-headsite? If yes, how can I adjust their look and feel (number of words, image, etc.)?

 

Thanks in advance

Samuel

    Hi Sam,

     

    the blog interaction style allows for a Teaser and a Body to be included for a blog article. In this way, you can have an excerpt of the blog article in the teaser. Normally the teaser is highlighted in the Blog Page, and you can then read the full article when you click trough into the Blog Article.

     

    That said - you can access these fields also via our REST API, and create custom components that achieve a radically different look and feel than the standard Lithium one: a couple of examples were highlighted here

     

    I am not sure I fully answered your question but I hope this will help driving the discussion :smileyhappy:

     

     

    Cheers,
