Hack: vBadvanced CMPS Latest Geek Articles Version: 1.0 Author: Me

run above file
Follow the slight file modifications in the README.
File modifications: 1 Template modifications: 0 Installer: Yup. A very cool one. Phrased: Yup
In a nutshell, this module is based upon the vBa Latest Topics module, but is instead set up to pull the 'Latest articles' from a specified forum. This is really designed for those using The Geek Article System.
Check out the Readme that comes in the package.
Change Log version 1.3 uploaded 02/02/05
Minor update to module in order to work with new vBaCMPS release
version 1.2 uploaded 07/01/05
Fixed 'Excluded Forums' bug that appeared to have been bitten by Zombie.
It came back to haunt one user so I had to take drastic action and update it.
It now WORKS with your 'excluded forums' setting. That is to say, you can exclude your acticle forums from 'Latest topics' but they will still happily appear in Latest Articles.
Please note that this means there is now a file edit. Please read the README.
version 1.1 uploaded 07/01/05
Fixed bug where when users had vba excluded forums set, it caused a query error. To fix, download latest package and upload latest modules/latestgeektopics.php overwriting your old one.
When using GAS 3.51, I can not get certain settings to show up. Like the article icon does not show up. I also experienced the settings not saving in the AdminCP once or twice before they finally did save.
Just bringing it to your attention Geek. Thanks for all the help thus far.
EDIT: Nevermind all of the above, I JUST noticed that the "icon" means the Post Icons rather than the actual Article Icon itself. But I still did get the settings not saving thing.
Is there a way to include the Article Icon as well?

This hasnt been reworked for 3.0 (its designed for 2.0)
It will work - just not with the 3.0 extras (like header images etc...).

If I could get some assistance... lol :: waves @ geek :: Thanks for the kick *** scripts :nervous:
Can anyone tell me how to rename the module (as it appears on the website). I cannot find a template to edit and can't find it in the php file.
Thanks.
this would be great for my new site- I hope that an update happens soon, but if it means other new geek-innovations being put to the backburner I can wait
Im up to my eyeballs in several open projects and doubt ill get around to this for awhile. Personally I just wish someone would take the mack over as I know many would love this.
