Article System · **Released**: 04-15-2004

Alright, here's my Beta... Do not even touch this unless you know what you're doing! To upgrade to future versions you WILL have to have a fair amount of knowledge about templates and other things.

I need help with an installer and any feedback and suggestions on things to add/do

An example of it can be found running here.

All code made and testing on VB 3.0.0 and shouldn't have any issues with 3.0.1 or any future releases. This doesn't relay on any Vbulletin templates. The only vbulletin functions it uses is basic template and DB connectivity.

The support on this will be VERY limited. I only need people that know enough to be helpful in tracking down bugs that they may find. I'm very busy during the week. You'll want to edit index.php and add links to any of the admin functions you want.

I covered alot here

NEW STUFF:
Hialls is helping me with the installer and helping add some things that will help you guys use and install this alot easier.

Go ahead and check this system out and tell me what needs to be added and I'll see about adding it to my additions list

The edit error has been fixed, and I've stated MANY times that if you don't know what your doing then wait for the actual release.

How far away is it now?

it's alot further along than it was a week ago

I've mainly been focusing on the news side of this and it's no longer going to be just an article system... It's going the total portal route.

This means the release gets pushed back quite a bit but when it finally arrives it'll put the smackdown on the competition. I'm contemplating at what point to do a preview of it.

FYI folks... you can edit the data in PHPMyAdmin if you have it installed.

InsaneContender · #**136** 05-09-2004, 02:23 PM

Why are you going for the full portal route???

Personally, I hate portals, and I was hoping someone would make a good article system for vB. Not a portal. Come on now...

Have to agree, we have PORTAL system's coming out of our ears now so don't really need another

Oh forget this, i'm gonna try to install the beta and modify to my needs...

krohnathlonman · #**140** 05-11-2004, 03:42 PM

no... there's not a real portal anywhere to be found...... There's bits and pieces floating around YES. I'm making a complete package.

Anybody that wants to just use the article part will easily be able to... It WILL still be easy to use by itself.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
