Amount of data sent in bytes
Source/referrer from which you accessed the site
Browser used
Operating system used
IP address used; IP anonymization is enabled on this website.

The collected data is used solely for statistical analysis and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to subsequently review the server log files should there be concrete indications of unlawful use.

Cookies

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website.

Common browsers offer the option to disable cookies. Note: If you disable cookies, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions.

 Comment Function

When users leave comments on posts, the time of creation and the username chosen by the website visitor are stored in addition to the comment itself. This serves our security, as we can be held liable for illegal content on our website, even if it was created by users.

These plugins are recognizable by the Facebook logo or the terms "Like," "Share," or "Recommend" in Facebook's colors (blue and white). Information about all Facebook plugins can be found at the following link: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/
The plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook servers. The website operator has no influence on the nature and function of the plugins.

1  Installation and configuration:

The installation is carried out as usual via the Joomla extension tool:

After successful installation, you will receive the following message:

1.1  Configuration:

We will demonstrate the configuration using two examples:

In the first example, we see a configuration for a blog section where the posts are displayed in a 3-column grid. We proceed as follows.

In our example, we use a post category called "Joomla and Tools Post Blog" . (Example: The name can be customized.)

In our example, the category contains 27 posts.

In the next step, we switch to the previously installed module EBW Articles.

After installation, it is initially inactive. We activate it and access it for editing – configuration.

2       Embedding via shortcode:

Instead of assigning the module to a template position, it can be embedded directly into a Joomla article. This is done using Joomla's own shortcode:

Replace "Latest Articles" with the title of your module instance.

Prerequisite: The content plugin "Content - Load Modules" must be activated. This is the default setting in Joomla.

When embedded via shortcode, the module is rendered at the point in the article text where the shortcode was placed. The module's menu assignment is ignored—the module appears on every page where the article containing the shortcode is displayed.
