 I need some help... Here is what I'm wanting to do. Basically, on one of the pages within my website, I want links setup on the left side with the different months of the year (January, February, March, April, etc....), and on the right-side, I want a TEXT/HTML module that will display my pictures/articles/news for the month that a user clicks on. For instance, when you click on January, I want the content to the right to be January's images and news. When you click on February, I want that content on the right to change to February's images and news, and so on....

Is there a simple way to do this or will I need to have someone build me a custom module. It seems like it should be a pretty simple task, I just don't know how to go about it. Any help on this is greatly appreciated and I Thank you in advance!

Hi there,

You could set this type of relationship quite easily with one of my modules, the Aggregator module which shows content in tabs. You could have tabs for each month and then place other modules or just html/text within each tab corresponding to the month. If you want a more elaborate setup you could also use the Targetting functionality to do something a little more custom. The targetting demo is located here, http://www.dnnstuff.com/Modules/AggregatorTabbedModules/AggregatorDemos/TargetingOtherAggregators/tabid/335/language/en-US/Default.aspx.

There is a free demo located here, http://www.dnnstuff.com/Download/tabid/298/aff/15/afv/topic/aft/1537/language/en-US/Default.aspx that you could use to mock up the interface before deciding if it will work for you or not. I'd be more than happy to help you out if you need some assistance learning how to do this but it's quite straightforward.
