What It Does:
This allows you to turn one of your forums into a news blog.

Live Installation: http://www.crackedeggstudios.com/news.php
This site is usually an update or two ahead of what's available in this thread, because that's where we do all our testing.

Products to Install: 1
Plugins Included: 14
Files to Upload: 7
Files to Edit: 0
New Templates: 8
Template Edits: 0

Mod Features:
- adds options to the Forum Manager
- uses forum permissions
- threads in the given forum become articles
- pull articles from other forums
- full-text articles are displayed in a customized forumdisplay
- post replies are added as comments
- set number of articles and comments per page
- turn on/off announcements in news display
- turn on/off attachments in news display
- turn on/off last comment in news display
- ajax quick edit in news display (basically, quick edit in forum display)
- display articles on every comments page
- limit size of article preview
- additional BB-Code tags for articles

BB-Code Tags:
[previewlength]value[/previewlength]
Placing this anywhere in an article overrides the preview limit for that article only. Multiple [previewlength] tags are cumulative. A "Read More..." link will appear if this tag is used.

[preview]value[/preview]
Placing this anywhere in an article defines text that will only show on Newsdisplay. Text contained in this tag completely replaces the post text on Newsdisplay. Multiple [preview] tags are cumulative. A "Read More..." link will appear if this tag is used.

[more]value[/more]
Placing this anywhere in an article defines text that will only show on Shownews. Text contained in this tag does not replace the post text on Shownews. It only hides text from Newsdisplay.

hey i got an idea.. could you make news.php default to a news section? like newsdisplay.php?f=1 but you could just go to newsdisplay.php then it will appear! just by default! then it should also work if it is newsdisplay.php?f=2 or newsdisplay.php?f=3 !!! let me know thanks because i feel that using vbseo to put the file up in the homepage is a bad idea! it will be better if there is something at the index..

let me know thanks

also it seems like there is still bugs mentioned from a few people! let me know if its bug free again thanks

again awesome hack

i still have no idea on how to make the urls convert in vbseo! i am thinking of the best way is to use newsdisplay.php only and not shownews.php i think i am going to just going to make newsdisplay.php direct to the real thread! that way you can preserve the urls and have url free conflicts! I think im going to use if conditions to define the showpost.php so it will look like newsdisplays template on certain forum ids.

do you think this is a good idea? do you think this will be hard to do?

vbulletin.org did the same thing for the mods and styles section so i think it might just work!

You can accomplish this using .htaccess. Also if you add the do=main to the URL it is slightly different.

For example on my site I have:
Code:
RewriteRule ^main.php$ news.php?do=main&f=2 [L,QSA]
This makes forumid 2 display without extra forumdisplay stuff like subforums on the page main.php, which doesn't physically exist.

Hm... that's surprising. I actually fixed that for the last release, so I'm not sure why I had to do it again. Again, I took the trim() calls out of the product file, so you should just redownload it.

Thanks, but still a few bugs.

See attached.

In IE7, it buries the bottom part of the post as you can barely see the icons/buttons.

In Firefox and Opera, it shows grey color on the right side for some reason.

Ah, I think those are related to the fact that you use postbit_legacy on your forum, and the mod doesn't have legacy versions. I will look into this.
