I think you would need to modify Sources/Articles.php and change the comment query to order by ID_COMMENT DESC if it is missing.
It actually had to be changed from DESC to ASC...

Which portal? SimplePortal, TinyPortal, Ezportal, PortaMX, Dream Portal?

Does this article mod act like a review? Because I know there is no review mod. (Yes, it's for games reviews)

I think it it has ratings built in so I think you can use it that way.

I think the rating system is for users rating the actual article.

Would it be a big job to add an edit function to the comments section? As it is now, comments can only be deleted.

Would require some work about a half hour to hour.

Hallo

I have SMF simple portal.Every SMF portal sistem (Tiny, Simple or EZ) have "add custom html code or php code" feature.Can you write html code with next feature in the block:

-Submit article
-View article

or just preview one article in the list.
This is great mod but not enough visible for my visitors.

Sorry about my english and thanks

Kindred

well, submit article is not available in a module, but EZPortal (also written by vbgamer) has a recent articles block

Sorry my mistake.I think about add article button and little preview.Simple portal also have a recent or random article block but I cant connect that options with SMF Articles.

I found this solution on one site:

global $smcFunc, $scripturl;
isAllowedTo('view_articles');
$dbresult = $smcFunc['db_query']('', "
SELECT a.ID_ARTICLE, a.title
FROM {db_prefix}articles AS a
WHERE a.approved = 1
ORDER BY RAND()
LIMIT 5
");

echo'
<div class="smalltext" style="text-align: center; color: #f9e9ac;">
   <strong>5 Random Articles</strong>
</div>
   <hr />';

echo'
<table>';
while ($row = $smcFunc['db_fetch_assoc']($dbresult))
{
echo '
<tr>
<td align="center">', sp_embed_image('topic'), ' </td>
<td><span class="smalltext"><a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=articles;sa=view;article=' . $row['ID_ARTICLE'] . '">' . $row['title'] . '</a></span></td>
</tr>';
}
$smcFunc['db_free_result']($dbresult);

echo'
</table><hr />
', sp_embed_image('dot'), ' <span class="smalltext"><font color="#000000"><b><a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=articles;sa=addarticle;cat=1">Add Articles</a></b></span>';


ant this is currently the best solution for me.If someone have better proposal please write it here.

Hi there,

Once again a great mod VBGamer :D

I have one small problem...... when I upload an image it only shows as a thumbnail within my article as opposed to full size. There is no thumbnail showing beside the Article name.

Any ideas?

vbgamer45

I belive that's what it does by default adds the thumbnail with a link to the larger image.

Thanks for the response.

I don't get a link to the larger image showing. The larger image has been uploaded into the folder on my server.

It is not a major deal as my users will have no problem linking to an external site for images and adding them to their articles.

I may remove the upload facility altogether.

Is there still no way that users can be informed that a new article has been submitted yet?

I am using SMF 1.1.11

Donated  :-*

Thanks for your time and your mods 8)

The other thing I see "missing" from the SMF articles mod is that the Sitemap mod does not appear to pick up the articles - but there are plenty of web workarounds for sitemap issues.
Is there any workaround to get SMF Articles into the sitemap mod?

Not at this time.

Not yet like an unread system? Or like a pm on new article?

Hi,

Just trying this mod out on 2.0RC3 and I have created one category, made 3 articles and lal is great.

I created a sub-category (a child if you like) but I wish to move it (make it not a child) or delete it but there is not option for this.

Any suggestions appreciated, obviously I don't want to delete the parent.

Cheers

G

Go inside the parent category. The subcategories should be listed above and you can find the edit/delete links there.

@vbgamer45

Thanks very much for the response...all sorted!

I'm so sure that wasn't there before when I looked.

It's a great mod by the way, works really well in conjunction with the redirect boards on 2.0RC3.

Cheers

G
