Ship Modeling Forum - Articles Section
So far 37 articles. Don't know if our Articles section is the best, but our members like it and so do I. I've made a lot of edits. Mostly to the templates and one or two to articles.php. Any Admin that wants to see all of the changes I've made, contact me and I'll PM a test user account to you. As a guest, you really can't see all of my edits. The test account does have some limited functions, but you'll get the idea. Some of the changes:
1 - Added a articles navbar with dropdown menus for the categories, articles, and the stats.
2 - Created an author's list where the authors' names are bookmarked. The bookmarks are linked by $post[fieldxx] variables in the postbit, memberinfo and treadview member tools dropdown menus. If a member has submitted an article, the postfiield variable in their user profile is linked right to the author's list and to their articles.
3 - In stats view, linked the latest comment by a bookmark that takes you right to the last comment for that article (as of now, only works with one page articles, trying to work it out for multi paged ones).
4 - Added a dropdown text box for adding comments, with a pop up window for vbcodes and a spellcheck link at the bottom of the comment window.
5 - Reformatted the Article Options, Author's Profile, Rating, Similar Articles, Posted Comments templates (and a Members Options template) to a horizontal view (lineal).
6 - Reformatted the Article Index view for multi page articles with a "Return to the first" page link in the article pagination, and added a template conditional so that a one page article index doesn't show (look at the bottom of the article view).
7 - Added a bunch of collapse buttons to the template headers.
To do - Would like to add email notifications for the member contributed articles for new comments made on their article(s).
Almost forgot. Created an "Articles Archive" for plain text view. Much like the vbulletins Archiving.
That's about it. That's enough! Too many long nights editing. Need to get some sleep.
Great Mod cinq, Thank You.
