| by feral1 on 2003/12/8 2:02:00 One other thing... I mentioned above it would be nice to have a field for publication, and another for author/s Ideally, there should be a feature to add frequrently appearing publicatioons and authors to self-defined pull-down lists, so the editor would always use consistent terms. |

| by JackJ on 2003/12/8 1:09:55 I would like the front index page to look more like a typical modern "articles" page similar to how a "news" page is set out. Say, two/three columns of blocks, and a short intro to the articles, with the ability to have a small image included and a "read more" added. I think gaining mass has hacked his version to do this..perhaps this is already in the pipeline.. And a default homepage setting, which would give us the choice to have an individual page load if wfsections is set as the default load module.. |

| by feral1 on 2003/12/8 0:54:22 Hi If this topic is still open for discussion, I've got a request or two for the next (I hope!) version of WF-Sections. First, I want to say it's a great mod! Thanks to the original author and to Catz who I understand updated it this year. I find it useful as a place to store what I call 'Reference Articles' on the main XOOPS site I run. It has more fields than the regular 'News' module, so I can, for example, include the hyperlink and title of the origional source. Very nice. But - there are still not quite enough fields for perfection. Most importantly, I'd liker a 'date of publication' field separate from a 'date posted/updated' field - and I'd like to be able to sort on category pages by date of publicatioon as well as date posted. It would slao be nice to have blocks for both 'most recently posted' and 'most recently published'. Ideally, I'd like extra fields for author/s (eg. 'Mr. Boris Mann') and publication source (eg. New York Times'). I'm also having problems with the display of pages in WF-Sections, but that's a separate issue (although I would still love some help figuring out a fix). On the main page at http://physics911.org/net/modules/wfsection/ , the table does not resize to the page width on all the borwsers I use to view it - although it does in the category pages ( eg. http://physics911.org/net/modules/wfsection/index.php?category=3 ). I'm b******* if I can figure out why and how to fix it. Any suggestions? |

| by malexandria on 2003/9/3 13:46:52 I would like to be able to use it as a Fanfiction, or Story Module and for that I would want to be able to do nested categories, with user uploads, and chaptering features. So we could have Movies Buffy Story Name/Author Story Chapters All allowing users to upload their own stuff. and I would like to get it to work, to this day I've never been able to get the module to work. Usually when I install it, I end up with blank pages on the index page, or in the module itself. |
