I implemented teasers on ProductivityEnhancement.com, but I did it using
separate content items that had a category of "NewsTeaser". I then created
a custom tag named DisplayProNewsTeasers by copying and modifying
DisplayContentNamesByCategory, like this:
<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="Yes">
<cfparam name="Attributes.category" type="string" default="NewsTeaser">
<cfif ThisTag.ExecutionMode EQ "Start">
<cfinvoke
component="#Application.Content#"
method="GetContentByCategory"
returnvariable="contentQuery"
category="#Attributes.category#">
<cfif contentQuery.RecordCount GT 0>
<cfoutput><ul
style="margin-left:9px;list-style-image:url('/images/arrow.gif');font-size:1
1px;"></cfoutput>
<cfoutput query="contentQuery">
<cfif contentQuery.CurrentRow EQ 1>
<li style="font-size:18px;"><a
href="#Application.urlRoot#/News.cfm?id=#ListFirst(ContentItemID,
'-')#"><b>#ContentItemName#</b></a>#ContentBody#</li>
<cfelse>
<li><a href="#Application.urlRoot#/News.cfm?id=#ListFirst(ContentItemID,
'-')#"><b>#ContentItemName#</b></a>#ContentBody#</li>
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
<cfoutput></ul></cfoutput>
<cfelse>
<cfoutput><p>There is currently no content in this
category.</p></cfoutput>
</cfif>
</cfif>
<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="No">
I make the IDs of the teasers the same as the IDs of the news items to which
they refer, except the teasers are appended with "-Teaser".
This technique works very well for us. I hope you find it useful.
Gotta get back to class, guys! :)

Subject: [plum] Adding Teaser to Plum CMS
Plum CMS is very simple to implement. But, I propose
to Plum Developer to add one more field, ei TEASER, in
the PlumContentItem. This field very important to
display small description of a content, then there is
a link to detail one. This is the example what I mean:
Title1:Bush is Not Coming to Iraq
Teaser:Bla-bla bla-bla bla bla-bla
<a href=More-detail>
Title2:Bush is Not Coming to Iraq
Teaser:Bla-bla bla-bla bla bla-bla
<a href=More-detail>
Title3:Bush is Not Coming to Iraq
Teaser:Bla-bla bla-bla bla bla-bla
<a href=More-detail>
What do you think?
Thank's you
ahmadie
