Latest News & More News ordering

[IrishGuinea]

The way it works now is the Latest News displays the newest articles posted then the order flows right into More News. They are tied together.

Is there a way to have them seperate. Meaning I want to order the More News section and keep that order intact for the day, while Latest News will flow with any new articles posted throughout the day.

If any writers add articles after I put them in order it moves everything down in both sections. Then I have to go and reorder them everytime.

I hope that makes sense...

If this cannot be done easily enough, can you guys do custom work to achieve this while still being able to upgrade future versions?

Thanks

Best way to achieve that kind of control on your site is to put featured new in 'Hot list' and 'More headlines' that way you would have manual control over what goes in 'More headlines'. You should limit Hot list to 5 articles and then get rest of featured in More headlines, also you should limit latest news to active articles only.

Thank you for the response.

So how much would it cost for you guys to accomplish that?

I'm really new to coding and that sounds like a job thats over my head.

I already have a ticket open for some other minor custom work, anyway you can get this added to that ticket? I'm still waiting on a price so maybe they could throw that in with it?
