I gather that Publisher is a development of Smartsection. If so, could an upgrade from Smartsection be possible (as a future development) if the new DB tables were included as SQL inserts in an 'upgrade.php' file etc?.

Also, you mention cloning the module and re-naming it, is that to retain the existing prefs?

From what I understand from Trabis' website, Publisher is a complete ground up rewrite of smartsection that handles tables, etc in a completely different way and isn't such a power hog on the server

I tried it, and it's good. But unfortunately, it will only import from smartsection categories, not from subcategories

Is that your conclusion or is that the official statement.

Sorry mate, it's scripted from cvs file, not svn. It was early morning

Btw. It's a smartsection 2.14. :)

That's the official statement from his website. Unfortunately it won't import subcategories. And if you read the thread he says that, and says how to do it manually

on the xuups site:

Have you tried MyWords or xNews?

I'm having a strange problem with Publisher. I downloaded it from the google Code site yesterday and installed it today.

I imported from Smartsection. When it did the import it said it found 130 categories (correct) and 9,000+ articles (correct).

But it only imported 3 main categories and no subcategories. The module summary says it imported 86 categories and 6856 articles.

on the module summary page it shows the ID, the subcategory name properly, the title, created, status,action.

But, in the Category page it only shows the 3 main Categories and not the Subcategories

And when you go to edit an article, it is not showing the correct subcategory that's listed in the module summary page. It only shows the 3 main categories in the drop down menu.

I created a couple of subcategories, hoping it would automatically drop everything into the subcategories that are shown on the module summary page, but it didnt' work.

Do you know why it would stop at 86 subcategories and only 6800 articles?

Also, when it was done the import and went back to the module summary page, it was a white screen (like in smartsection). It showed the links and the tabs, but not article list, no xoops header or footer. Luckily, I had another admin screen open. And when I went into the modules page and clicked on Publisher, the screens were back to normal.

I thought that white screen was related to the XOOPSTHEMEFORM/XOOPSFORM issue?

I see lots of mention about mywords, and lots of migration scripts, etc? but I have not found any mention of where it can be downloaded and it doesn't come up in the search

Are you sure?

Go to google and search for "xoops mywords"

ok, i tried it again, on my localhost., which is running php, apache, and mysql at lower versions than my host

the screen ends up looking like this when the import is done:





and at the bottom of the page i get a fatal error

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in G:\wamp\www\htdocs\class\textsanitizer\censor\censor.php on line 37

how can I adjust time 30 second time limit?
