I found a new problem
When a user submits from the website and it needs to be validated everything goes fine until the admin validates, when this is done Title and Author get overwritten with the data from Date. I believe it's to do with the line Quote:
I could be wrong as I haven't looked into it much. Thanks |

I have a suggestion for the coming up version :
Right now the hack has an option of making the articles viewable only for registered members. How about giving an option to admin....using which...individual permission can be given for viewable by registered members only. What i mean, it should be possible to make certain articles viewable by all ( members/guests and other ), while certain articles will be viewable by only Registered members after logging in. Within a category, few articles can be viewable by all, while others will be viewable by only registered members. The articles which are viewable by only registered members will be marked with a small icon indicating the same. Would u like to introduce this feature cinq ?? Thanks much |

Is there a way to intergrate this with vbportal where you can include a left column.

Refering to the previous question, Does anyone else want to know how to? I am close to getting mine setup right. I figured, rather than being lazy - it is something I was, so I am trying to figure it out on my own. Thanks.

to add to this hack, would it be possible to make it so that articles are only viewable by style, and then by group?

Just make sure you download the updated version of the hack from the first page of this thread. Check the date...it should include all of the fixes identified in posts 126 and on...the only other thing I did was to integrate an HTML editor, but that's a commerical app. Lemme know if you have any other questions. :rambo:

I did a very simple template edit to make it easier for registered users who no nothing about HTML. The mod tells the user how to use the br, p, i, b, and u tags.
Although you could easily modify the hack itself so that BB code would print out html. What I did was. Open template vbArticles_addnewarticle find: PHP Code:

Firstly, thanks for a great hack! Working with this beta to hopefully fill a big void on our site. Thanks for taking the time to supply such a nice and needed addon for vbulletin!
Now, I've been keeping tabs with this thread, applying 'fixes' as they come in. I have all the nice updates provided by dontpanic. Thanks mate. One problem that keeps persisting is the MySQL error on edit bug. Not been able to find a fix for it, and seems there's no fix to the very problem stated by more than me in this thread The Infamous Error: Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /path/to/forums/admin/vbArticlesadmin.php on line 236 I get this error when I click "View all articles" then click "Edit" on and article in the list. When I hope the link I notice it has "&artid=" at the end, but no representation of the article id. I don't know if this is the problem, but if anyone can solve this MySQL error for me I'd be most grateful. Thanks again for a great hack! Keep up the good work... (Here's the scary part... I got lots of ideas for this awesome system!! omg!) :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: |
