Re: PunNewz

Anything is possible, my friend smile

Feel free to modify it to suit your needs.  I'm using a modified version on my front page.  Just change the links in externnews.php (around line 262...)

I'm not a php coder : I would like if it was possible ... it seems it's possible smile so thanx for the answer smile

Re: PunNewz

With this, all the news items on the front page must be in ONE catagory. So wouldn't it be better if the administrator could vink (or something) that that topic must appear on the front page when posting a new topic?
That would be better I think... smile
Julius

Re: PunNewz

I suppose you could do that... but you would need an extra column in the db to store the info.

I post news in particular forums only, so it suits my needs just fine. big_smile

Re: PunNewz

How can i limit the page being that displayed on the frontpage? I've tried to limit it to only showing one latest post by using this

<? php include('http://host.com/forums/extern.php?action=new&show=1&fid=9'); ?>

but it doesn't work...is there a way to fix it? Help will be appreciated.

if mONey is lOSt nOThINg is lOSt,
if cHArACtER is lOSt sOMeTHiNG is lOSt,
bUT,
if rELiGIon and eDUcATiON aRE lOSt eVErYThINg is lOSt.

Re: PunNewz

i wanted a link in every news item that said "edit" if you were logged in as admin so i included the following lines in externnews.php:

            If ($cur_user['status'] == PUN_ADMIN)
                $edit = '<td align="right"><a href='.$pun_root.'edit.php?id='.$cur_post['id'].'">Redigera nyheten</a></td>';
            else
                $edit = '';

then i made the script echo the $edit variable after every news-item, but it did not work.. i dont get the link to show... sad why!!! =P

Re: PunNewz

Because you don't need to show that link when your logged in.

You can set that link to be there allways but if you click on it and your not admin it will say you do not have permision. smile

Re: PunNewz

   - 2 Styles avalable, just change the comments.

Re: PunNewz

I hope I can get some help with this even though the topic is old. neutral
My code looks like this atm:
            // Display first paragraph only (comment out next four lines to turn off)
            //$paragraph = preg_split("/\s*\n+/", $cur_post['message']);
            //if ($paragraph[1]) {
            //    $cur_post['message'] = $paragraph[0] . "...";
            //}

But I still don't get the full topic:
