Hmm, I'm a little stumped. As an admininstrator (u=1) I cannot see how to remove comments from articles. At this moment, I don't 'need' to, but I bet once this goes live - I will need to delete comments at some point in time.

Also, I sent you the $25 for branding free.. I've read the instructions in the downloaded file but cannot locate the specific details it says I need to edit.

ETA: I found the specifics in the file - it needs two edits though, not one.

Im useing iGaming CMS for my site an wanted to inbed the news into it an take out the news system its useing an use this on.Why I was wondering if I can just include it into the site with out changing a whole lot.

I've left a couple of 'support tickets' (contact us) on the site, as recommended, but as yet - 2days later, no replies to any of them.
I like the product, but the support is lacking severely.

I found just one, on Saturday I think and I replied to it. If you didn't got it, I'll resend it right now. Sorry, but weekends are always delayed. I need some rest from time to time.

Thank you for the email today, I dind't receive the previous one - but I have received the one today. I apologise if I spoke in haste when it based on an undelivered email as oppose not responding.

I just wanted to let the community know that MicroHellas has gone out of her way to help with the problems I was having, unfortunately - I'd made the mistake of figuring out one of the problems and failed to mention this to her.
Anyway, her help has been extremely appreciated.

Sorry mary for ask this silly question

I have difficulties to configure the 4 variables.

// Path to your vB installation with slash at the end
$vbpath = 'http://www.ceritabrunei.com/forum/';
// Path to $vbnewsname file with slash at the end
$vbnewspath = 'http://www.ceritabrunei.com/forum/';
// URL to $vbnewsname file with slash at the end
$vbnewsurl = 'http://www.ceritabrunei.com/';
// vbNews file name in case that you changed it
$vbnewsname = 'vbnews.php';


For your info my root directory is http://www.ceritabrunei.com/forum and my current index page at http://www.ceritabrunei.com/forum/index.php

See the wording in red color. Is it correct the way i edit the 4 variables? I need your advise.
Thanks.

I assume that vBNews automatically takes on the skin of the installed vb. Is that a correct assumption?

Is there a Tag system for the vbNews? It would eliminate admins from having to enter articles in multiple categories. Having clickable tags at the end of each article would be awesome. (similar to this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=148705 )

Also, are you still on track to complete your SNS module at the end of this month?

anyone got a working, live example?

I know I'm probably just being a n00b or missing something but it just seems too hard to configure. can't even figure out how to get important news or center area (where main image is) to show up. +_+

really need a "how to" or wiki guide about set-up or something.
still looks great and something I want to use. its NOT very self-explanatory or user-friendly, (imo) and have given up after running into a wall with it a couple times.

I'm still hoping to get the "tricks" to it. but does anyone have a clear step-by-step on how to the content filled AFTER its been installed?

sorry for the n00biness.
