Hi! I've tried almost all articles modules for XOOPS (News, AMS, News2, ArMS etc) but none of them has such feature.

For example, I need to specify that some articles in some categories are grouped in newspaper number, have number's archive etc.

Before I started to code by myself please point me to existent module\hack...

Thanks in advance...

AMS and I think articles offer sub categories.

So unless I am over simplifying things here I would guess that you could have a subcategory for each newspaper edition. If however your looking at having articles from different categories making up individual editions of your newspaper you may want to check out the new modules: article which is currently in alpha stage at moment but might be worth a shot.

AMS: More info and download from IT HQ: HERE
Articles: By Andrew Mills at Sirium.net: Info from here
Article: Mroe info from Here

I think that the new module (article) is based around a blogging system and as such I am sure I read that you can post articles in multiple categories, perhaps looking at this may allow you to pull articles from mulitple cats to make a newspaper edition.

I also think I saw a module in the repository which was called something like magazine which might be worth a shot.

Thanks a lot! I use XOOPS now 2.0.13.2 and AMS 2.41 so I'm looking forward to write some module (I don't like the idea to modify AMS 'cause I want simple way to upgrade modules).

Magazine shares a common ancestory with WF-Sections, which should do the job nicely.

I would try out SmartSection, Magazine and AMS to see what suits you.

(I may be biased to the first 2 being a WF-Team & SmartTeam member )
