This is a modified clone of the core Joomla mod_articles_latest. The core module only delivers the linked title, but this clone does a whole lot more.
The module uses the shortcode layout system which will allow data object formatting in many ways.

- Resize image using the selectable range of JImage::SCALE_ functions
- Display truncated text as intro text from the article
- Display meta objects, author, published date
- Add and rearrange each data object with placeholders [title][image][text] etc
- Preset layout and styling, selectable by drop select field.
- Item slideshow using JSSOR
- Pagination using jQuery plugin
- Category blog emulation to show Lead, Items and title links
