I can only see "Make a comment on this article" instead a "post reply" button, and teh replys are the same... just like a simple post after the main post of the thread.

I want to know, because i'm looking for an article system, and... well... i want to know.
I already have a forum-article, but is just a normal forum, with subforums, and post inside (and moderation for threads).

Is any difference?

Thanks

Its really no more that a cosmetic change TC. In other words it would take your existing forum that contains threads that are 'articles' and just displays them in a way that is more similar to an article system that requires a massive hack.

There is more coming on this modification too. I am working on tweaking the forumdisplay to be more 'article like' as well. But once again... this is purely cosmetic (which is why it has been as popular as it has been).

Not sure if that helps!?!
