Is that basically what you mean?

Yep... Got it to work a little while ago thank you! :D http://wolfgaming.net

Ok, i tried to install this on a 3.0.7, no luck, the instructions on steps 4 and 5 dosn't apply. Anyone had any lucky on their 3.0.7? Perhaps someone can share the info?

This is exactly what I need...any chance you'll update it for vb 3.5??

Thanks a lot for this mod. It was just what I was looking for.

I just wanted to add simple date breaks into the existing news, so I just used a snippet of the code to replace a line in news.php (CMPS v2.x):

in news.php replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
eval('$newsbits .= "' . fetch_template('adv_portal_newsbits') . '";');

with:

PHP Code:


		
			
//datemod 1 of 2 start



            $dayposted = vbdate('njy', $news['postdateline']);



        //Display The Current News Day

        if ($dategroup != $dayposted)

            {

            $datelongform = vbdate('l, F jS, Y', $news['postdateline']);

            $dategroup = vbdate('njy', $news['postdateline']);

            $prevdate = true;        

            eval('$newsbits .= "' . fetch_template('adv_portal_newsdigest_date') . fetch_template('adv_portal_newsbits') . '";');

            }else{

//datemod 1 of 2 end            

            

        eval('$newsbits .= "' . fetch_template('adv_portal_newsbits') . '";');    



//datemod 2 of 2 start

        }                        

//datemod    2 of 2 end

And in this case, you need to enclose the contents of adv_portal_newsdigest_date in <tr><td></td></tr> tags.

Also, note this only works if you have your News module option "Separate News Posts" set to "No", but it should be easy to figure out the code to change in news.php for this to work for the other mode.

All this does is divide up your normal News posts with a date bar. It doesn't have any of the extra functions of the full mod.

In using this with vB 3.0.8 and CMPS 2, I noticed I had to change the use of date() to vbdate() or else I would get discrepancies between the post dates and current time zone setting.

I look forward to using your module.

I am currently running vb 3.6.4 and vBadvanced CMPS 2.2.1 and I would like to use the news digest module on it. Will this run on my version or do I need to wait for an update?

Had to ask before I tried to install.

I've decided to move to Joomla for content management so I won't be upgrading this for vba CMPS 2. If anyone wishes to do so they have my permission to post the code here.

Michael, with your OK I wouldn't mind taking this one over. I had almost forgotten about this thread until it got bumped and I realized I could use this on one of my sites. I need to go over the code a bit (since with CMPS 2.x you can just easily copy a module and then make edits to the copy) but it should be doable.

Michael, sorry to see you go to Joomla. I was really looking forward to trying out your module.

I hope KW802 can figure it out. It looks like exactly what I need (organizing my front end by category)

Can you tell me if this site is using your module? I have been trying to figure it out for days on how they are displaying their categories on the homepage, but yet I don't see them in the forum (the categories):

http://www.gotapex.com/

see where it says:

Also, is this mod similar to yours?

It might be a day or so before I have a chance to work on it but I'll post whatever I come up with.
