Link to Mod

This mod adds a separate news page fed by your regular forum news items. It has a n option to completely disable the news and is driven by permissions, so you can choose which membergroups may view the news.

Nice Mod

Glad you like it! I have fully developed a new version which will include actual news permission, so text strings have changed. I'll shoot you a PM regarding German when I have them in front of me.

Thanks, Labradoodle-360

I have completed an update for the mod, which includes an update for SMF 2.0 RC3 along with some new features that were suggested I include.

I cannot guarantee a time-frame on this as my dev laptop is still down, with a busy real life schedule I've not had the time to repair it.

Any chance to be ported to SMF 1.1.12 ?

Looks like just the mod I need but won't install on RC5 even if the emulation is set to RC3. Of course it may be my other mods causing the problem but too many errors to do a manual install.

Has it been tested for install on RC5 at all?

I've not done a test with Advanced News on SMF 2.0 RC5. My guess is that the permission edit throws an error - even with emulation due to the line I commonly called in the RC3 mods I wrote being changed in RC5, thus causing emulation errors for most of my RC3 mods that were not brought up to date for RC4 and RC5.

A manual edit install should be able to be completed without any trouble.

In addition, I do plan on updating all of my mods for SMF 2.0 Final, eventually.

Many thanks, I'll wait for that then. :)
