vbF Journal
Article Publishing Module
by



1.- Credit goes to:
  1. MicroHellas, as this module has developed by her.
  2. Olympic, for his corrections to secure this module according to vB's standards.
2.- General information
  • This module is mainly for use for Article posting with 1 photo. Unlike vbNews and vbArticles which are using 3nd party HTML editor, vbJurnal uses vB's Editor.
  • Editors choice Articles
  • Breaking Articles
  • Important Articles
  • RSS per category
  • Newest Articles by category
  • Most Active Authors (according to the number of post Articles)
  • All these blocks can be turn off in case that you don't need them, by setting 0 as the number of appearing articles
  • All these blocks are following the active category. eg Breaking news in main page shows articles from all categories. Breaking news while you're in X category shows breaking news from X category only.
3.- Installation
  1. Open vbjournal.php file with a text editor like notepad. At line 9 you'll find a variable: $mydateformat = 'm/d/Y'; This is set to default US date format. You can change it according to your country's setting eg. for UK d/m/Y or for other European countries to d.m.Y or d-m-Y. You can also add the time if you want. eg 'd/m/Y H:ia' this will give 20/8/2007 14:15pm. The reason that I didn't used the internal vbdate function is because that some users from Scandinavian countries, Spain and France had problems with vbdate().
  2. Upload the contains of /forum directory to the same directory where you've installed vBulletin. Please note that if you've another vbF module already installed, you'll get a message for file "loading.gif" that already exists. Don't worry. You can skip or overwrite it as it's the same image.
  3. CMOD following directories to 777
    1. /photos (inside vbjournal directory)
    2. /tmp (inside vbjournal directory)
    3. /thumbs (inside vbjournal/photos directory)
  4. For security reasons backup your database AND turn your board off
  5. Check at your AdminCP->vBulletin Options->Plugin/Hook System that Plugin system is enabled.
  6. From your AdminCP->Plugin System->Manage Products choose Add/Import Product and import the product: product_vbjournal.xml
  7. If you want to add a link to your nav bar then you must edit the NAVBAR template:
    1. Search For:
      Code:
      <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>
    2. Add Below:
      Code:
      <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vbjournal.php$session[sessionurl_q]">Journal</a></td>
      ....or use any other word you want.
  8. By default none usergroup has permissions to use vbjournal, so you need to give permissions to any group. Goto AdminCP->Usergroups->Usergroup Manager and edit any usergroup you like to give permissions.
  9. In your adminCP, under vbJournal, choose vbJournal options and configure it depending on your needs. If you can't see vbJournal's menu, press F5 to refresh the page, or logout and login again to your admincp.
  10. Now, you can access vbJournal at: www.youdomain.com/vb_installation/vbjournal.php

Thank you for this addon but can I ask one question please?

When creating an article the editor only gives me the option to upload one picture at a time this is a pain when you want to upload a few picture because you have to add 1 and save then edit and add one and save then edit and so on for each picture

Now is this just me and my settings or is it just how you have to do it?

Thanks for any help given

Is there support for this add on any more? I have this version installed and love the look of it only trouble is it lacks functionality Would be willing to pay for a pro version of Vbjournal but you don't seem to have one.
I have the full version of vbarticles and while this has the extras I want like "rate and comment" and "search articles" it does not look as nice as vbjournal

Please tell me there will be an upgrade

vBFreeLancers don't support their products. A complete rip off for anyone who purchased their paid mods.

Thanks for the reply looks like I may have lost ?20 on vbarticles then

Hopefully someone else will come up with a decent reviewing/article mod until then I will try and learn how to do it myself but I think we will be using Vb ver 6.1 by then

Can some help me here !

I just installed the vbjournal which is a very nice mod. However, I get blank page screens on my admincp for 'categories' and 'add category'. The vbJournal Options is OK. The front end is ok and working but the back end is just black fr those two sections.

I tired looking in the code in the vbJournal_admin in the admincp folder downloaded. But the problem still exist.

I am still using vb 3.6.8 and php4. All my files point to php4 (which I update whenever I download a new mod by adding the '4' to the relevant files).
Below is the attached code for vbJournal_admin downloaded.

Any help is appreciated
