News Listings

Many departments want to publicize their news to the public, whether patients or prospective students/postdoc fellows. Tridion offers news components that create clean, sortable layouts for displaying news on the web.

As part of the Profile System, the News Module pulls information from a database outside Tridion to display content on your site.

For information about adding and editing individual news items in the Profile System, please see the https://ysmweb.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HELP/pages/1694269479 section of instructions.

 

This section of instructions provides information on creating News Listings in Tridion using Profile System data, as well as the different display options for those Listings.
