Despite placing in permissions per category, all users can view all categories.
Don't Follow me I got No Idea what I'm Doing

Bec

BEAUTIFUL!!! Ive been waiting ages for this one, thank you!!

Bec

I just have one little suggestion and that is after you create a category and are putting articles into those categories, it would be nice if they were arranged in alphabetical order rather than the order they are put in... the irony is I just finished doing all my articles through Tp today so now im in the process of copying them all over lol thanks again!!

Bec

I am trying to sort the categories (moving one down) and am getting this error message:-

Table 'buctai8_smf1.articles_cat' doesn't exist
File: /home/buctai8/public_html/Sources/Articles.php
Line: 862

any ideas?

Spudgun

Nice mod ;)

I have a bug here, does anyone else?... when viewing a list of articles, the comments count registers views and the views count registers comments (stats)

Can anyone help with a fix?

Regards
Spudgun.

Can you move existing topics? I have several topics written in a article fashion.

Can't recreate on my test forum. I tried with guests and setting permissions for admin group to deny for all options under a category

Very detailed answer - I know you do this for free and I honestly respect that...but... do we all delete the mod or simply put it on hold until such a time that we may get support?

I know this sounds harsh as the issue in no way affects the functionality of the mod but I'm getting headaches from my forum members complaining. ;)

Despite my previous slightly negative post, I do appreciate your work and you are right, it is better to fix multiple bugs all in one go. Thanks for your prompt fix vbgamer45  8)
