Customizing the Layouts
-
This plugin is just what were looking for to centralize our news production but display teasers across our network. We would like to be able to tweak the layout of the different views. For example, on the view with the excerpt to the right of the picture, we would like to have the Title and Meta Data above the excerpt on the right. We would also like to be able to turn off “on site ..” and “published” and just show the date.
Is there a recommended way to modify the layouts in a child theme and/or create custom views without overwriting your plugin code?
Thanks

Thanks – As far as the meta data, yes, we would like the option just to show the date. For the title, we really want something more like this where the title is above the excerpt only and the date is below.

Also, is it possible to have a separate class on the read more link and the title link so we can style them separately?
And finally, is it possible to have the date pick up the WordPress site date format?
Please look at the link here instead fro what we are looking for. The main thing we need is the title and meta data aligned to the right of the image above the excerpt. We have decided to keep the Published on date in. We can do the styling in css if we have a version of the layout that puts the title and meta data aligned to the right of the image above the excerpt.

With the current layout, when the titles are longer than one line, there is no wy to get the image and title to line up with just css.
