a few things i still need to figure out

i started beta testing the ningja sitebuilder but these issues i need to figure out arent related to that

i got a forum list by _updated (assumming that actualy will list by most recently replied to) but.. is there a way to add an excerpt from each forum post below the title link

next question i want to have a list on a shop page that lists profiles within the "featured shops" quota
and list them randomly
but cant figure out how to target just those in that quouta not sure if group by or search by is the option and not sure where to find the key
entering debug in the code in the widget wouldnt save (see my bug report in beta)
ideally i want a list that refreshes every 30 sec or so ..or a slider simular to the elastic profile slider .. wich actuualy would be perfect if it was able to be configured to only show featured shops and maybe add a text description feild

additionaly i want to make lists based on newest products, most recently purchased (ifthats possible) most recently viewed if possible highest rated and a totaly random list of all
if that could also be somewhat of a slider or refreshing list that would be awesome

but im just unsure of how to code the lists (although for the more basic lists etc ive got that fairly well figured
out i think)

so to clarify what i need
1 add an excerpt after each forum title link
add a (hopefully refreshing) random list of featured shops if it cant refresh thatrs fine ifit can just display 3 or 5 each load thats fine
a list of most recently added (thats easy ifi knew the key to target and i guess i need seamless to list all product types)
a list of most recently purchased and viewed highest rated etc

i really need to figure out how to code for seamless


micheal initial observations on sitebuilder with jingja its awesome but ..clunky and tricky and will definateolky take some css to 'clean it up"
but
ibelieve after acouple days working with it...and figuring out the above few confusions it will be just what i needed

damn 5 am again...ill be working hard onit tomorow so if u can give me any lil clues on these few things i can really put it through some testing in the morn

There is an interface for that under jrEmbed button in the WYSIWYG editor in the widgets.

under CONSTRUCTION tab.

SE did you get a main page module for Latest Forum Discussions?
I'm jealous!

yes using the beta ningja sitebuilder but its not as easy as youdthink im struggling with it
i got the forum display but having a hell of a time with sorting itther way i want and getting itto display how i want im thinking i will have to make a custom template
wich im not 100% confident at yet

i am getting closer with every mistake i make to understanding the way it works but just still not sure how to do sevveral things i nbeed to do

and theshops site with the exception of the featured shops list will have to wait till i have active shops to have data in the datastore

That would make a great thread by itself so others can locate it.
A: It will be added to the Site Builder construction kit module.
