AMS - Getting rid of silly fields:)

I am using AMS for my news, and am finding it really useful. The trouble is that I would like to remove the fields that are of no use to users.

namely: (Audience, Article ID and Version)

How and where can I edit these out.

Thanks guys,

mes

You can create your own article template and remove these sections. You can do all this via the XOOPS admin panel, but you will need some knowledge of smarty.

ams_article.html is the file. should have worked that out really. sorry..:)Just removed each unwanted field individually e.g.

<div class="itemStats" style="text-align: right;"><{$lang_reads}> : <{$story.hits}></div>

removing this removes the reads field...etc..

You seem to have spotted the smarty tags with out too much trouble. I suggest you read the FAQ's for a template tutorial to find out how to create your own.

I would like to edit the old template really. When an anonymous user posts a news article they get 5 fields to fill in which is good.

When you give someone approve permissions they have 16 fields to fill in (permission, audience, disable html etc) this is ok for admins but to much for a general user.

i want to make easier

where can i edit the smarty code for this or whatever:))

cheers,,
