The news module allows you to add news from the admin panel, it's a fully dynamic module the admin can customize as needed. From admin, you can add (a title, image, and description and you can set limitations for descriptions).
Admin can create categories for news and posts will link to these categories. It helps users to navigate easily and find news posts looking for. It is multi-language compatible. This extension is working with OpenCart's latest and older versions.

It has complete features for creating a news blog website on the OpenCart website. Admin can enter the title and description of news posts. The description has a WYSIWYG editor built. It makes writing in HTML and text-based posts by admin. With rich features to embed videos images and other HTML code.
Feature images can be attached to news articles and blog posts. This image is displayed on top of every post. To make post url search engine friendly this module comes with an SEO url. The post url will be created by a keyword entered by the admin. Moreover, posts can be linked to one or multiple stores. One news article will be displayed on every store that is linked.
There is a setting for overriding the pre-build layout for news posts by the admin by selecting one of the created layouts.

The category is an important part of any news article website. Admin can create unlimited categories that will be used to link to posts. It has features that give name, description, links to the parent category, sort order, SEO-friendly url, category image, and more.
Categories can easily show and hide on the news blog section, just by changing the status of the setting. There is a setting called sort order that lets the admin decide the category that will display before or after other categories. Like news posts, the category has a similar setting for linking with stores. If the website has multiple stores, then the news category will display on the linked store only.
Admin can change the design of the category page that displays the linked posts list. Create a new layout in the page layout setting, and apply that new page design to the category. It will override the existing design of the category that comes with the module.

TMD cares about its customers and clients. That's why we create all modules and themes multi-language compatible. If your website uses a non-English language still it will work and let you enter the news and categories in all installed languages.
All the currently installed languages on the website will be shown inside the news post as tabs. Admin can enter the information separately for all languages. This way, customers will be able to read the post in their selected languages on the site.
If your websites have multi-language and people use them. It works seamlessly with multi-languages.
The module is tested with many famous themes. Journal, Shoppica, Fastor, Sellya are some names of the themes. News posts and categories look like part of the website. It takes website text and color themes to display the news posts. The module is working perfectly.
If you are using a custom theme made specifically for your website. Still, our module will work.
