Widget: Latest Articles In Section

1 Attachment(s)

Latest Articles In Section

What is does:
vBCMS only has one option for latest articles and that is all sections and categories. This widget will allow you to display the latest articles in a specific section.

Change Log:
1.0 - Initial Release
1.1 - Updated to allow more than one section & display published date.
1.2 - Small update, no need to update unless you are using a table prefix.
1.3 - Added full page text if no previewtext row exists.
1.4 - Updated to not show unpublished articles.
1.5 - Updated read more link to look more vBulletin related.
1.6 - Small change to fix 4.0.2 [ATTACH] showing in text.

Installation:

Goto AdminCP-vBullietin CMS-Widgets->Create New Widget
Choose PHP Direct Execution as Widget's Type
Enter A Title IE: "Latest (Insert Your Section Name Here)"
Click Save
Click Configure
Remove all the default code.
Copy and Paste the code below first editing $section and $limit to your liking
Click Save
Goto AdminCP-vBullietin CMS-Layout Manager
Add the Widget to your Layout
Click Save

How do I find my section id?
When clicking on your section you should see something like this:

Quote:

http://www.domain.com/content.php?11

The number after ? in this case 11 is your section id.

Can I enter more than one section id?
Yes simply change $section = '11' to something like $section='11, 12, 13'

Code to copy(make sure you change $section and $limit!)

PHP Code:


		
			
// Set Your Section ID Here
$section = '11';
// Set The Number of Articles To Display
$limit = '1';
// Set The Height of The Thumbnail Image
$height = '250';
// Set The Width of The Thumbnail Image
$width = '250';

$articlegrab = vB::$db->query_read("
SELECT ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_nodeinfo.nodeid
    , ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_nodeinfo.title
    , ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_article.previewimage

    AND (".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_node.setpublish != 0)
  ORDER BY ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_node.publishdate DESC LIMIT $limit
");


while($articleinfo = vB::$db->fetch_array($articlegrab)) {

    $title = $articleinfo['title'];
    $image = $articleinfo['previewimage'];
    $text = $articleinfo['previewtext'];
    $nodeid = $articleinfo['nodeid'];
    $url = $articleinfo['url'];
    $unixdate = $articleinfo['publishdate']; 
    $date = date("F j, Y, g:i a", $unixdate);  
    $fulltext = strip_bbcode($fulltext);
    $text = preg_replace('/\[ATTACH\=CONFIG\]\d\d\[\/ATTACH\]/', '', $text);
    $text = strip_bbcode($text);


   if($text == '') $text = substr($fulltext, 0,150);
    
    $output .= '<center>';
    if($image != '') $output .= "<img src='".$image."' width='".$width."px' height='".$height."px' /><br />";
    
    $output .= "<a href='content.php?".$nodeid."-".$url."'>".$title."</a><br /><p>Publish Date: ".$date."</p></br></center><p>".$text." <a href='content.php?".$nodeid."-".$url."'> <img alt='Read More' src='images/cms/read_more-right.png' title='Read More' border='0'></a></p><br />";

Thank you very much OcR Envy, works perfectly.

Any chance to get one for most viewed and one for most commented articles per sections and/or categories?

Sure I could work on that King.

1.2 Updated - Small update for people using a table prefix should resolve any database errors.

So you aren't getting any database errors just nothing is showing in the widget?

There are other ways to find the Section ID.

Go to your AdminCP-vBCMS-Section Manager.
Hover over the section you want. The link should look like this:

Code:

http://www.domain.com/admincp/cms_content_admin.php?do=filter&sectionid=116&contenttypeid=17

sectionid=116 is the part you'd want 116 would be your section id in this example.

OcR Envy, there's a way to print the section, subsection and/or categories from the article in the widget?

Thanks =)

I also got an error.
I changed the section to one of my sections

HTML Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /usr/www/users/saj716/a_customxxxxxxxxx/forum/packages/vbcms/widget/execphp.php(171) : eval()'d code on line 44

Also, to add, I do have a prefix "vbull"

Preview Text works fine for me on two of my test boards. Check your source and see paste the HTML the widget enters so I can look at it closer please. The 150px image is the preview image for the article. If you insert and image into the article it will display a thumbnail view of the image. You can change the dimensions if you'd like. 150px just worked for what I was trying to do.

You must change the sections to match your own section numbers. Make sure you have the number reading like this $section = '115'; 115 would be your own section id but you must have the surrounding ' '; for it to work.

Admin Panel
Widgets>>Create New Widget >>Choose "General Search" (also name your widget)
Then "save"
Then you need to configure. Choose "Article". Then choose the rest how many days and how many you want to show up.

I know this isn't available currently, but any thought to setting it up so that individual users could choose the section they want to appear by default? In other words, setting up a widget on the front page that would show articles by section based on their selection?

Create a User Profile Field, Single Line Textbox.
In the UsersCP have the user enter the Section ID they want to display.
In the widget change $section = ' '; to $section = $bbuserinfo['fieldX']

X would be the Profile Field #. I believe this will work I obviously haven't tested it.

Thanks for this great widget! I think I have found a bug: Also not published articles get catched up by the sql-query. This is not very good :D

can this be modified to just show the latest article in each section? Right now it is show up double on my main page and I am looking to just have a different display for the newest article in each section.

It is also showing up in the article itself so I might be doing something wrong. http://www.k-series.com/forum/conten...take-Manifolds

Maybe bit a bit more clear exactly what you want to show and not show.

01-22-2010 03:03 PM

I am trying to make the latest article in each section and the latest article on the main page show up different. I would like for them to have a larger image and have more a presense on the page than the typical 1x2 column that VB provides.

The front page will always show your most recent articles there's no way to turn that off as far as I know. This mod is meant to show latest articles in a section outside of the front page. You should be playing with the layout manager and your templates to accomplish what you want.

Updated to 1.5 It will no longer display unpublished articles.

There's a way to do this?

i get the widget working now

but there are 2 things what i need to know:

1.) when i click on the "(more)" link in the widget - nothing is working i get nothing displayed ?! (i think the problem is with seo - how can i fix this in the widget in the rest of the cms everything is working with seo .. please help :) )

2.) how can i display the showed articels side by side in one row ?!

this would be great if i get this things working ;)

really a great hack ;)

The great thing would be to have the latest articles in the current section automatically detected, without to specify $section = 'x'; ... It would be amazing if $section=current section detected.

Would be this possible ?

02-07-2010 11:04 AM

Seems like a mod i need thanks! Is there any way to control what user groups see the widget or not? I would like uno-logged in users to see block with certain articles but if you log in you will not see it.

Please advise....

Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $output .= '<center>';
    if($image != '') $output .= "<img src='".$image."' width='".$width."px' height='".$height."px' /><br />";
    
    $output .= "<a href='content.php?".$nodeid."-".$url."'>".$title."</a><br /><p>Publish Date: ".$date."</p></br></center><p>".$text." <a href='content.php?".$nodeid."-".$url."'>(more)</a></p><br />";

Replace with something like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $output .= '<div style="float: right; width:255px;">';
    if($image != '') $output .= "<img src='".$image."' width='".$width."px' height='".$height."px' style="float: left;" /><br />";
    $output .= "<a href='content.php?".$nodeid."-".$url."'>".$title."</a><br /><p>Publish Date: ".$date."</p></br><p>".$text." <a href='content.php?".$nodeid."-".$url."'>(more)</a></p><br /></div>";

2. Remove the <center> calls and make a <table><tr><td> would be easiest. It's just simply HTML :)

Just a guess on the url rewrite. I actually need the format for your CMS Entry setting in vbSEO.

Perfect works good now - but i have a little thing with the text descriptions under the pictures now -> you see it in the attachment ..

There is no space between the text of each displayed articel in the widget - is there de possibility to do a maximum number of charters and the rest with "..." and then the "(more)" function like in the attachment with the number "2" -> this would be great if i can get this output then the widget is perfect ;) - or if this not possible then the "1" would be also good - but "2" would be the best ;)

and how can i change the text size in the description?

Is there a possibility to but the "Read more ->" like in the cms used with the articel previes instead of the "(more)" - thats just a idea to look more professional ... ;)

Thx for your great help ;) i love your widget hack

with the seo i have it working now your idea was right ;)

There are two solutions to the spacing problem neptun.

You could either add cellpadding="10px" or something to <table> or a style="padding-right:10px;" to the <td>

Or to shrink the text displayed find:

PHP Code:


		
			
if($text == '') $text = substr($fulltext, 0,150);

and edit the 150 to whatever number of characters you'd like. However this might not work if the article is pulling the previewtext from the database it wouldn't be effected by this change.

For the more idea:

find:

PHP Code:


		
			
(more)</a>

change to:

PHP Code:


		
			
Read More <img alt='Read More' src='images/cms/read_more-right.png'  title='Read More' border='0'></a>

I like the idea to I'll update the original code :)
