Article system coming soon!

[krohnathlonman]

I've been working on porting my custom article system over to Vbulletin!

can be seen in action:

It's working great with style changing capabilities.

Basically just use something like VBindex for your news and use the system I'm making for articles....

The only other real article system I've found for Vbulletin I really don't like and its here: http://www.vbportal.com/
There's another at v3arcade, but again it just doesn't work for people like me.

after a couple months without updating you guys:

6-26
[PAGEBREAK] now working for the add process which makes only 1 text box on submission process. I'll be integrating the HTMLArea editor into this box next. I'll get this working for the edit process at a later date. I'm considering the performance affects of using $textarray=split('\[PAGEBREAK]',$text); in the article display. This would eliminate the page limitation, BUT at a cost to performance. I'm not sure yet if I'm willing to do this for my site. Currently the system is limited to 10 pages. I'm thinking about increasing this limit to 20 if there's actually demand for it. I don't have anything over 9 pages on my site.

HTMLArea editor now in place as the image attatchment suggests. That means both of the lbig features I said I'd like to have are now in place.... Obviously I plan on tweaking the editor quite a bit to customize it towards the needs of this system. Currently it's the base example put into place and working.

Also considering security aspects of a delete process. Maybe something like only allowing certain userids access? I want to make sure that the delete process is secure. Currently I'm using phpmyadmin for deletions which is very protected on my system.

Also Considering Titles in the Page dropdown list. Not sure of the best way of doing this YET I may include them in the [Pagebreak] but I'll have to change the DB structure a bit. I'll wait on this till I decide about page support.
