v3 Articles 1.0.1

By John Warwick, Web Development Freelancer (john@eovieinteractive.com)
Fully tested and working on vBulletin 3.0.1.
Part of www.v3arcade.com

Important Security Fix - Please download v3 Articles 1.0.2.zip
---
If you are upgrading, please read Security Fix Upgrade.txt
If you are installing for the first time, read Instructions.txt


INTRODUCTION
v3 Articles was originally written for the fine people at www.DodgeTalk.com, for use with their vBulletin forum. The purpose of this add-on is to provide a place in vBulletin for articles (e.g. news, reviews, editorials) similar to that of the thread interface - but with a more content-oriented approach.

Features:
- Usergroup based permissions
- Full editing/deletion/moderation system
- Article attachments
- Article ratings
- Comments system
- "Featured Article" system, give great articles top exposure
- Introduction and category description text
- Smilies and icons
- Full BBCODE/WYSIWYG support
- Attachment captions
- Full page navigation for articles and comments
- Comment dupe checking
- Status icons
- View users' ratings in their comments

Alternatively, check the screenshots!

I've tried to make the installation as quick and painless as possible. Enjoy!


WORKING DEMO
You can see a working demo of v3 Articles at www.v3articles.com. (Part of the v3 Arcade website.)


MANY THANKS
- Ron Wilson, of DodgeTalk.com
- Everyone on v3Arcade.com who donated to keep the server running


SUPPORT
Support can be found in the v3 Articles thread on vBulletin.org, and shortly on v3arcade.com. (I'll set up a priority support system.) As always, I'll happily give support for real problems. However, a lot of the time people ask questions about things which have already been answered hundreds of times. If you have a problem caused by not reading through the instructions or checking through the support thread, I can't guarantee a response.


DONATIONS
v3 Articles is free, but my server isn't! Any donations are hugely appreciated in order to help me keep my v3 sites running. (PayPal: john@eovie.com). Many thanks to those who donate!
If you're looking for someone to install v3 Articles for you, email me at john@eovieinteractive.com.


PLEASE CLICK INSTALL
Needless to say, if you install this please click the "Install" button. Thanks.

Why Bad Timing?

Not for me at least, because it is exactly what I want and need and it runs so smooth and I use this as for reviews and previews made by me and my team, the members must be satisfied with vBArticles that I turned around for the member review section

Any new features John?

Some bugs (dont know if they have been posted before):

- Preview works, but the $message in the editor is empty and so the editied posting after sending
- Last user who made a comment isnt linked to his profile (linkvalue is empty
- Questionmarks wont be parsed (it shows the HTML-Code instead)

For certain reasons, v3 Articles was coded as a standalone system which was then combined with vBulletin. Because it was a whole new system, there were a few bugs which needed to be worked out.

The new version is very different to the old. It's completely integrated with vBulletin, in the sense that it's entirely based on the thread/post system. Because of this, the biggest benefit is that you get the stability of vB3 - everything works in much the same way as the rest of the forum, so you get all the additional features threads have. (Such as polls, for example.)

The difference is that threads are called articles, and posts are called comments. And of course, the layout is geared towards article presentation, as well as all the old v3 Article features.

John,
I assume you are mostly trying to stabalize the system to make it work better but I don't suppose that in this version or a later one you could make it possible to allow articles to be moved under a new user account? A lot of our articles come from people who aren't on our forum or don't want the article to show under their actual username so I generally post them and then have to move them into a new user account but I don't think vbarticles allowed for that in the past.

Thanks again for the amazing hack, I spent all weekened fine tunning an external script that I wrote in the past and now I see its probably all a waste
