News list module filtered by news archive

[DavideR]

Hi,
I have 30 news archives and 1 page 'blog.html' with inside a news list module that take alla news from all of these archives.
Since I don't want to create 30 news list module and 30 pages, how can I filter blog.html with something like a parameter (for example ?archive=archive_name)?
Or have you any other idea?

Thanks!!

Davide

You can use the HOOK newsListFetchItems https://github.com/contao/core/blob/...sList.php#L199

Then filter the news items in your callback with e.g.

if(\Input::get('myVar') === 'myValue')
{
  // do something
}

Hi Andreas,
I've solved using news_categories extension and setting a default category for each user, but your solution will be useful in another case, thank you!
