cinq, this is simply awesome. It installed flawlessly.

Some suggestions I would have are already on your todo list (like sub-categories).

Other suggestions I have are as follows.

1. Don't ask for the date, just take it from the system date.

2. Make the "Content" field look more like the posting field in vBulletin.

3.In addition to allowing for vbCode, also have the vbcode buttons above the "Content" box (like on vBulletin.org).

4. An option in the ACP to allow/disallow vbCode and HTML and have the suggestion #3 above show or don't show based on this setting.

5. Have a "Posted By" field show up when displaying an article and have it put in the username of the person who posted it. Even show the "Posted By" when listing articles. This is useful for when the article author is not the same as the person of posted it.

6. An ACP option to choose who is allowed to post/edit/view articles in each category. This is good if you want users to just post articles to a particular category and then you move them to the appropriate spot later. It is also good if you have a series of articles that you want to be available only to your moderators or admins.

7. An option in the ACP to change the Display Order when viewing the list of articles/categories without having to edit each individual article/category. The same way that the forum listing allows you to change the display order without having to edit each individual forum.

8. And lastly (probably not), Add a "Search" feature or tie the articles into the existing vBulletin search routine.

I want to replace my existing FAQ section (which is currently housed in a forum so it can be searched) with this one because it has so much potential.

Overall, good work tho.
