Please add this great module with a choosable Category selection with linked titles!
This is an essential function the raxo module don't have not yet.
can i hope this function will be realized in the near future..?

Could you specify by what parameter related articles should be chosen? by date? any articles from the same category?

i explained it not exactly.. the categorys are already choosable, the number of items are already choosable too..
its a template request.
i want to display:
in the first div: image | category |title | introtext
in the second div: category: | linked title (no image, no introtext!)
... and so on

you find this layout on sites e.g.
http://www.thesun.co.uk
http://www.time.com
http://www.spiegel.de
http://www.yahoo.com
...

Ok, got it.
We'll produce such a template though I cannot promise any dates.
want to display:
in the first div: image | category |title | introtext
in the second div: category: | linked title (no image, no introtext!)
You can already create something similar by editing one of the built-in templates. In the php file of a module template go to the part responsible for regular items (not TOP items) and remove the codes responsible for image, intro, and other ones that you don't need. Play with it - it's fun :)

We've also been trying to get "related articles" to display below our Raxo articles (see http://modiinfo.com). We tried other Joomla extensions, but they won't work with Raxo. So I'm reviving this old thread and request that a Related Articles feature be added to Raxo.
Thank you,
Lisa
