Yes,

I think you're right, it's coming along pretty quickly. So nice when things come together like this, it means the original product was well-designed.

Another Q:

I set up another menu item under News and called it admin, linking it to admin.php.

How do I set it up so the link does not show up unless one is logged in with permissions to access the admin page?

I think this is possible in postnuke, hoping it's possible with XOOPS!

Thanks b'zillions

Hi,

I need to make the news admin match the layout of the rest of the site .. the journalism dept at my uni will be using XOOPS and they would freak out if they go to edit articles and it kicks into the default mode .. so i want to take the edit/approve article functionality out of the admin area and put it into the regular news module.

I'm wondering if anyone has done this and could offer some advice -- is it easier to port the admin news features to the regular layout, or to go the other way around, and just port the layout to the admin area? It's a pretty general question at this point, but what aspects of the admin section need to be ported over other than the obvious?

Additionally it would be nice if there is a way to handle this in several modules!!

Is there an easy way to do this? It looks kind of involved!!

Thanks for any help
