I had this installed two months ago. I uninstalled because if I went to make one a article to the CMS, it wouldn't not go. Has this been fixed or no.

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas why articles display like this one in Chrome? In IE it is fine, haven't tried in Firefox yet. The forums were recently migrated and updated to 4.1.0. All of the old articles from the 4.0.2 forums time are looking fine. This is the first one I've tried to post in 4.1.0. I've posted in both Chrome and IE, both inside the Articles forum and outside (and then moving it in) ... all same results. The article looks OK when it's a forum port outside of the Articles forum.

Working good on my 4.1 PL2

Suggestions:

1 - would be very cool, if a tab could be added to an author's profile showing a list of articles.

2 - would also be great if a postbit entry could be added showing 'Articles (x)' w/number of articles and also a link pointing to those articles.

I know that's all a bit more involved than the current version, but just suggestions.

Thanks.

I am with all the others - would definately make a decent donation if someone/ANYONE can make a CMPS module for this that works.

The blank space remain between user info and starting article.

How to fix this?

Thanx in advance.

Is it possible to keep the view of the original Forum-Structure @ Articles ?

I'am searching for an Adon that makes Threads into Articles ... but in the original Forum-Style...

No : Thread & Answer ----> Article : Comment

Has anyone had something similar occur? Any input would be very much appreciated.

Example: Letter R main page :

http://www.aniworlds.net/forum/articles.php?ltr=R&pp=&sort=&order=

Letter R current page 3 link:

http://www.aniworlds.net/forum/articles.php?order=desc&page=3

Although that link should take me to the 3rd page of the Letter R that should like this:

http://www.aniworlds.net/forum/articles.php?ltr=R&pp=&sort=&order=desc&page=3

Yet it does not, it always takes me to the 3rd page of all articles. I'm using 4.0.6 and latest version of this mod. Please if anyone has ANY feedback please share.

Im having the very same problem on 4.1.0

everything else works ok on it though

Very good but the created forum for the articles is not on my RSS feed, is it normal ?

[yayacannes]

Is it a dead mod ?

Hello.
When acces to articule by navbar link, access ok, without any error.

But when users, acces to articles by the categorie in forum (by link directly in thread of forum) appears this error:

Redirecting
Could not find phrase 'Redirecting...'.

How solved this issue?

Thanks and regards!
