I have a new fresh install of XOOPS 2.0.13.2.

I've previously use the old standard news module.

With this new fresh install, I've started using the news 1.44 module with the spotlight feature. What a great addition to Xoops!

I've got Catads, XHLD Headlines, Addresses, CBB, Articles, and MyReviews.

It's turning out to be a robust site.

I had previously installed Magazine module, but didn't like it.

I have an issue where when I create a news item, and then go in and edit the news item, upon edit, it automatically Checks the "Set the date/time of publish" Box when editing the news item.

Is this by default? At first, when I edited my first article, and clicked publish, it disappeared from the spotlight, but thankfully, I quickly realized what had happened.

Also, is it possible to turn this off? I looked all through the news management sections.

What is the thinking behind this default behavior if it is in fact default behavior.

Thanks in advance.

File: news/include/storyform.inc.php

look for. (it only appears once in the file)
$check=$published>:0;


change it to.
//$check=$published>0 ? 1 :0;
    
$check=0;

(comment it out and change the $check to equal 0 . false)

I don't know if I'm supposed to spend resources on thank you messages, but I do want to thank you for this helpful suggestion.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.


The little things can make a big difference in a managing a site. That check mark was pesky! LOL
Now it is no longer a problem.
