News

Aragorn restyles the whole news plugin — listings, the article view, the grid and every news menu — from Bootstrap 3 to Tabler markup. Nothing needs configuring for this to take effect: the theme's template overrides are picked up automatically once Aragorn is the active theme.

Where news appears in the theme:

Page	Layout	Notes
News listing (news.php)	sidebar	Can also be the site's front page — see news.php as front page.
Article view	sidebar
News grid	any	A menu, usually placed on the home page — see News grid.
News menus (latest, category, archive…)	any	Sidebar or footer menu areas.

Pages in this section

• News templates — which files the theme overrides, which Tabler pattern each listing uses, and what changed from the plugin defaults.

• News grid — placing the grid on the home page, choosing a layout, section headings, the "all news" link.

• news.php as front page — using the news listing as the site's front page and how the home layout applies to it.

• News shortcodes — the shortcodes these templates use and the parameters worth knowing about.

• Setup checklist — what to check on a live site after switching to the theme.
