1. <dtml-with expr="CMF">
... CMF is just a ID of the "CMF SIte" product. You can give any ID to a
"CMF Site" i.e. "BobsBigCMFsite"
The code would then be:
<dtml-with expr="BobsBigCMFsite">
Prerequisites: I have the CMF 1.2 Product installed
2. <dtml-var cmf_news>
"cmf_news" is another created name of a "DTML Method" I created.
I found the code in my default CMF Site at:
CMF SIte/portal_skins/generic/recent_news
note: you may have to hack out/in any code you don't want in your
presentation layer. I only removed the
<dtml-var standard_html_header> and <dtml-var standard_html_footer>
Copy this code (CMF SIte/portal_skins/generic/recent_news) to a DTML Method
at the root of your CMF Site.
Don't name it "recent_news"
3. </dtml-with> close the tag
4. Here is my code from my front page (index_html)
<div align="center">
<center>
<dtml-var standard_html_header>
<dtml-var yihaw_toplevel>
<dtml-var standard_html_footer>
</center>
</div>

Hi eric
thanks for your answers, but I am encountering problem in understanding
it...(forgive me but I'm really new to zope..)
this is your code:
<dtml-with expr="CMF">
<dtml-var cmf_news>
</dtml-with>
I don't understand if CMF stands for the name of my cmf_site or for the path
to my folder/object and in this case what is the object?
I mean, suppose I have an article in a folder called myFirstArticle and this
would be the path to it: cmf_site/MyNews/MyArticles/MyFirstArticle, and your
code becomes something like this:
<dtml-with expr="cmf_site/MyNews/MyArticles/MyFirstArticle">
<dtml-var cmf_news>
</dtml-with>
but then again: what is cmf_news? where do I get that variable from?
thanks again and I hope you or anyone else could help me with this.
thanks
Luca

This is what I use to pull the last 3 dates from my squishdot site (without
stuff in parens)
<dtml-with expr="squishdot_site"> (squishdot folderish/object)
<dtml-var articles_html> (copied code from
"squishdot/rightbox_methods/prev_articles)
</dtml-with> (close tag)
Same concept with my CMF site
<dtml-with expr="CMF">
<dtml-var cmf_news>
</dtml-with>
I pull both CMF News and Squishdot News to my front page. Anyone posting to
my CMF or Squishdot site will see there posting headline on the fron page.

Hi list,
I am new to Zope and I am stuck with this problem:
I have created folders and subfolders and I now need to retrieve the content
of these subfolders and display it in the home page.
Let's say I have 4 different folders, each one has 3 subfolders and each
subfolder has a list of articles or news_items.
How can I import the content of the last article published in a specified
subfolders, in the homepage? or the last news_item published in a specified
subfolder into the index_html of the homepage?
thanks for helping
Luca
