Seriously, the devs do notice (even if they don't reply!).

Thanks for the encouragement. I'll try and keep reporting. Article 2.0 seems to have much potential.

Well, I've been playing with the module for a few days, and I am, to be honest, failing to get the hang of it. I'm not sure that I like the way the front end displays 'out of the box', in as much as when you click on a top level category, the contents are displayed in the following order:
Category name and description:
Articles in Category:
Sub Categories:

It'd make more sense to me to have the articles listed below the sub categories... This doesn't seem editable through the preferences. Maybe it's hackable, and maybe it's just my way of looking at it.

The number of controlpanels is overwhelming. Maybe it's just the variety of places where the same options are offered. I can't tell.

The admin>modules>article>preferences area seems to imply that forums should be linkable to articles for discussions. Can't make that work.

In the same area of admin, the Theme sets don't seem to be editable, or at least I don't know where to find them.

Also, I've succeeded in producing various errors, namely:
1.
When I click on the top level but empty category (which has sub categories with content articles in them).

2.
Not sure what I did here...

3.
When I try to delete a category. Category remains undeleted.

4.
when clicking on the 'Trackback' tab in the admin>article>index area.

I'm hopeful that this module can reach the standards necessary for a public release. It's not there yet.

I don't seem to be having any problems with article 2.0 RC, I uploaded the files over article 1.0 though, I am not saying it's perfect or that it's not confusing at times, though I have been using article 1.0 for a long time now, so I know my way around it I guess.

It's very configurable, I know that much lol.

Article 2.0 on one of my 2.3 sites

I have a few personal hardware reviews to write this week, well if I actually get the items. I will check out some of the things you guys have mentioned when I do.

Cheers....;o)

Ok I can't delete a Category no matter what I do.

I can create a new category, but still can't delete it ;o(

Hi friends,

I have these problems with Article:

1. The RSS, RDF, ATOM, OPML links do not work, as on clicking any of them there is a page blank in index page and Categories.

... modules/article/xml.php/rss in index page

... modules/article/xml.php/rss/c34 for example in one category



New installation.
Article module 1.00 update to Article 2.0RC
XOOPS 2.3.0 Alpha 3
PHP Version - 5.1.6
MySQL Version - 5.0.22
Server API Version - apache2handler
OS Version - Linux


For example on debug mode
... modules/article/xml.php/rss
it show this:

Internet Explorer

2. Notification Options only works "Global".


3. I can´t see Article spotlight in Article administration.



Any idea?, thanks in advance

I get this error when I try to delete a Category as well

Does anyone use the 'Topics' in Article 2.0RC?
I can't see the need for them seeing as how you can make sub-categories...
Can anyone enlighten me as to how they could be useful?

I see Topics as a way to create a 'series' - several articles about the same topic that get posted between other articles and may not be easy to group otherwise

Where can I find Article 2.0, please?
