Is there a mod that does it already that I'm not aware of? Thanks!

chief first post does something similar

In Firefox, the alignment looks great, but when using IE8...

- the alignment centers all the text, so I manually corrected it by modifying the "af_articles" template.

- The first thread template looks great in FireFox as well, but the user info has a wide blank space to the right of the text/avatar.

Have you looked at your mod using IE8?

Again, thanks for taking the time and creating a nice mod. :up:

I normally just use firefox, but i'll open up ie and try and make it the same

bananalive,

another suggestion: make number of displayed "most read"/"most commented" configurable, that would be good.
also, can you add an option to "link" an article to an existing thread upon creation? like this: user adds some useful post in other forum and i would want to store this info to be viewable as an article. i can move or copy this thread to articles forum but that's too inconvenient, if copied there will be two sets of comments with no viable way to merge them, if moved it will reside in articles with only a link in old forum and link can't be sticky. i would like it to be vice versa, the post itself in old forum and a link to it in articles, clicking it opening the post as an article. this way it can be very user friendly and convenient, moderators still having access to the whole thread to weed out unneeded comments and on the other hand, the useful info still easily accessed via articles section. could make a great "knowledge base" or "faq" mod for technical boards and such.

and, um, well... if that's possible it would be also great to have some "nominate for knowledge base" mechanism in threads, like "report this post" but for good posts that deserve to be put in articles section. ;)

bananalive,

also i found the bug that prevented article threads from being displayed with af_firstpost and af_comment templates: in "Alter Postbit" plugin, you forgot to import $vbulletin variable and it was inaccessible. changing plugin's first line from
Code:

global $counter, $articleforum;
to
Code:

global $counter, $articleforum, $vbulletin;
solved the problem.

Indeed, but your modification is not so far from GARS or reviewpost. All it needs is an advanced rating function added to it...

Would be nice. Will you consider adding this?

I wonder if i could use this as the default for all my threads and posts in my entire forum?

Installed and nominated excelent work

Top Banana :D :up:

carubmun,

i think it can easily be done, just create a new topmost forum category, move all your forums into it and assign it as article forums parent. voila.

Installed, but if you move (with redirection) a thread into another forum, the topic is still visible into articles section...

Can you set the option to select and edit 1 or more threads from index page of articles?
