Thanks! Does the same apply truncating the introtext? Would you be kind enough to demonstrate what I would need to put in the Item Template field to show 1. the intro text truncated to 350 2. a read more link. I have attached a screen capture of the front end module when i have entered the readmorelink into the Item Template field Regards Chris

Thank you that works perfectly. Though I am still having a problem getting the read more link to show. I have attached a screen capture of the Item Template field for your info. Thanks again for the great support. Regards Chris

{$readmore_link} predefined variable contains only link, not HTML code. You can use it with custom HTML code that create button or something another. For example you can use the next code:

Code:



<a href="{$readmore_link}">Read more...</a>
