This really is one of the best mods out there. Any way to make it work on multible catagories? It's perfect for our news section, but I think it would be fantastic for our red light district too.

Oh yes.... big improvements. Thank you.

For the future,.. can the primary page snippets strip out bbcode as well as urls for links, etc?

It would really clean up the look of the snippets of the articles on the main articles.php page.

Again, thanks!

When you view articles in IE the author details area comes across whole page on top of the article..



Also any chance for vbseo rules?

This add-on is great and we all appreciate the work you've put into this.

I ditto this, I'd like to change it to "guides". If this was incorporated with changing the content of the <title> tags too, that'd be a great feature.

It's too simple to change that phrase

You need to Search for phrase articles in your Admin CP Search in Phrases and search for articles.

Look at this screenshot:

There were quite a few phrases that had to be changed but I got them!

Fixed ie6 issue - will be included in next release.

It should work without any vbseo rules? But a quick google search revealed this post:
