can i use the vertical postbit legacy style

rather than the horizontal style with this hack ?

and how do i eliminate the picture from the post ?

Hey Geek,

I think the box of 'Template changes' is ticked by mistake since you're saying the script does not require any file or template edits.

P.S. Any advances in producing RTL support issues?

Im getting this error when people try and register now.

I have clicked "install" and will see if I can get it installed, I am not very good at this sort of thing LOL Wish me luck!

I'm trying this, but so far can't really see what it's doing or meant to do. As nearly as I can tell, it simply changes the terminology use for a given forum, such that posts are "Articles" instead of Posts. Oh, and it adds a header image.

What am I missing? I would expect that an "Article" could be associated with another forum category, and would be "featured" there.

So, other than slightly altering the appearance and terminology of the threads/posts within a particular forum, what other features does this have? I have a suspicion that I'm missing the point...

In particular, I don't understand the "feature" settings, such as "Auto-Feature new threads". Feature them where? How? How does a featured article differ from an un-featured article?

Actually, it just take some playing around. The admin is a bit... non-intuitive, to me, but through experimentation, I see how the forum is modified by the modules, and how you can have different modules for forumdisplay and showthread. Also, you have your own replacement templates, so one can customize even further.

I'm liking it. One small glitch... in forumdisplay, the article preview module doesn't float/wrap around the graphic. Thus if I replace the default header image with a banner-sized image, the preview text will be pushed all the way to the right, instead of flowing around the image, or showing underneath.

Which template would I edit to change this?

Also, your copyright statement apparently is missing a semicolon for the copyright entity. My link appears:

Where would this be fixed?

*high fives the geek*

awesome man! any idea when your store is going to be back up? i'm thinking about getting the Pro version so i can use it in multiple forums, and allow users to upload their own header images.

<installed>

I fixed the copyright tag, it's the GARS_powered_by phrase. The copyright entity is missing its terminal semi-colon.

Another question: in forumdisplay, my synopsis is being truncated. Since the synopsis doesn't show when the article is being viewed, the extra text is essentially lost.

I see the "Maximum character count for displaying synopsis in forumdisplay." setting in admincp, however, changing it doesn't appear to have any affect.

How can I force GARS to display the entire synopsis?

i have vb 3.0.x and want to upgrade to 3.5.x but am running v3articles. Is there anyway to import the data from my v3articles database so GARS can be my article management system without losing my data?
