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.

If I copy the news.php file and pass it the "f" variable ( http://www.domain.com/forums/news_copy?f=2) is there a way that I can just show the information between <!-- show threads --> and <!-- end show threads --> and not everything else? I'm trying to put that information in a AJAX tab for my front page in vbAdvanced.

Having trouble with the "Limit News Preview to How Many Words?" option. I've set it to like 50 words but it doesn't cut off the article and display the "Read More" link. Here is what I'm talking about:

Ah, thanks. That actually revealed a couple of bugs in news.php in 1.6.0. Still looking into a couple of things, but a new patch should be available shortly.

The fact that vB 3.7.0 is now stable and also includes CSRV protection (as does 3.6.10), and this mod doesn't currently have the appropriate form elements, means that pretty much every user of this mod is experiencing security token errors when attempting to use any of the AJAX features or inline moderation.

I guess this will force me to release a new patch earlier rather than later this week.

I'm getting a blank screen when visiting my blog.

I have Goldbrick installed and followed this step again

I also have this set as filenames:

newsces / shownewsces (confirmed they match the file names)

I have VBSEO as well (mentioning this in case you needed to know).

I did notice that within the blog, although a blank page it shows the actual file extension where usually VBSEO does not do that.

http://www.talkjesus.com/ (click on Blog under Info menu)
It shows this link: http://www.talkjesus.com/newsces.php?f=72

However, the menu link (and forum link) is:
http://www.talkjesus.com/blog/

You need to edit your php.ini to show the errors to the browser, otherwise I don't know what is causing this.

Actually, the logs show this when I attempt to visit the main blog page (newsces.php as I have it set up)

Okay, sounds like I forgot to put a check there for 3.7

You would wrap line 83 in the following conditional:
PHP Code:
if (FILE_VERSION >= '3.7.0'

I'm using 3.6.1.0, not 3.7
