The duration of displayed items is now determined by how many days since the item publish date and is applied globally to all items within the module instead of the use of an expiration date per item.

The layout of the annoucement items is now based on a template that is applied to each individual Annoucement module. You can now change the appearance of the announcement item such as the title and body location, size, and color as well as any other type . The use of templates is for more advanced users familiar with HTML and the use of CSS.
