Hello!

You can achieve this by using css rules to style the display to something that suits your needs.

The photo you attached is of another view of the component. The module is using another view, different from the one you mentioned.

If you want to obtain exactly the same markup and css, you need to update the module layout code with code from the other layout.

"Is there a module that I can display, such as latest media, via a command similar to {loadmodule mod_hotornotfactory_items} ?
There is no such feature implemented.

"Also, when you say to update the module layout code with code from another layout, can you tell me which layout to copy from, and which to copy to?"
components/com_hotornotfactory/views/items/tmpl/default.php to modules/mod_hotornotfactory_items/tmpl/default.php
Take note, that other changes might be required to make this work. Php and Joomla knowledte is required.

"I do not see a module that specifically seems to be displaying latest media - I would expect it to be called "mod_hotornotfactory_latestitems" or similar."
To display latest media, use the mod_hotornotfactory_items module and select Latest Added from the module's Display items option.

More info on how to use the loadmodule option here: docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_put_a_module_inside_an_article%3F

Hello again,

I have displayed the items module in the article, and selected Latest Added display items option. This works, although I need to solve the problem of how those images are displayed on the site's home page (which is an article).

When I look at your demo server, there is a link to "Latest Media" which displays a page with a nice-looking grid of images. I have that link on my site, also. I want that grid of Latest Media to also display in the article that is the home page of my Hot or Not site. So, it seems that the desired formatting already exists, but just needs to be able to be displayed in an article (probably as a module).

This is why I asked if there is a "Latest Images" type of module that can be displayed in an article. The site appears as if it already has this layout elsewhere.

The home page in your demo is all text, and no images. I think anyone who is creating a "Hot or Not" image rating site would likely want to be able to display a grid of the latest media on the first page that the user sees. Having only text on the home page is not attractive, and will cause the user to exit the site quickly, if there are no items visible prominently on the home page. The vertical format of the items module does not work well for displaying the images prominently in the main content area, especially when the page is viewed on a laptop.

I would like to suggest that HOT or NOT include a module to display the nice-looking grid of the latest media.

Is there a way to do this?

If not, would your team be willing to add this type of module to the product?

Your help is appreciated.

Thank you - I am very interested in having a module to display the nice-looking grid of the latest media, so that it can be displayed on the home page of the Hot or Not component.
When do you think this will be released?

There is no ETA regarding this.
