I updated the package to version 2.0

Whats different?

1- Carrid the 'article' theme through to the rest of showthread.php and even forumdisplay.php by adding 2 more templates. Granted, these changes are only subtle when compared to the first yet I felt it needed to be done for completeness.
2- Grouped phrases into their own lot
3- Added a couple of buttons

To upgrade, download the latest release and follow the upgrade instructions (they are pretty straight forward).

A vBadvanced module block would be a piece o cake to do (essentially just latest topics for pre defined forums).

Ill look into it as it could be a cool addition.

Very nice update. I've just seen a little problem under Firefox : when you want to vote for an article, little stars don't show, where as they do with the normal templates. And again congratulations !

Thanks for that. I forgot a phrase in the install package (though in my firfox, it showed the stars but not the title of the drop down).

I have updated the install file, however you can quickly fix yours by adding a new phrase:
Phrasegroup: GeekArticles
variable: geek_articles_rate_this_article
Text: Rate this Article

Thanks again!

Here's a little translation for French users :-)
(only the visible phrases translated).

Sweet! Ill fold that into the next update as an option to install.

I got various layout problems with this hack.

The top:

1. There are no 'Article Tools', 'Search This Article' or 'Rate article' links
2. The foldout menu's do work however, but give empty boxes (like under admin tools there are only empty boxes)
3. There's no dark line under that table (where the article tools, search this article and rate this article links should be). It also have a different outline compared to the article table and the comments tables.

The bottom:

1. the two tables where 'comments' (first row) and the 'Make a comment on this article' textlink (second row) doesn't feature any text.
3. There are no 'Previous Article | Next Article' textlinks, only the << and >> signs.


It seems like it has to do something with the language. But I only have the default language and the default template installed. I have checked for the phrases, and they are installed. The alignment problem doesn't exist in the normal showthread.

I also see links to images like 'background="images/dp/skin_images/forumbox_top_tile.gif' in the templates. Those files are meant for your skin, but aren't working for people having a different skin.

Looks like much (if not all) of your phrases did not install.

Can you PM me a link and also do a quick phrase search for the variable geek_articles_next_article

Did you get any errors running the install script?

Cheers

All phrases have been installed (already checked). I will run through all lines that I have to edit again :D

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but... Can articles have inline images in them?

Thanks.

P.S. Excellent work by the way.
