KM folders customization

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have created an iView to show my news form. It's a requirement that only 3 news must be shown in this iView. I suppose I need to customize a KM forder in order to permit create only 3 news inside it. Could somebody tell me if I'm in the right direction and help me with it? or maybe some other way to design a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Two simple approaches would be:

1. If you are having the same layout for all the three news items, then create a single edit form having fields for all the 3 news items. Then display one below the other in the show form. This will be stored in the KM folder and provide a KM navigation iview with custom layoutset. Layoutset would have only edit option.

2. Create a custom layoutset with collection renderer property "Number of Rows" set to 3. Now if you use the above layoutset in the KM navigation iView, then it would show only three news at a time. Older news items would be reached by using the paginator.
