Article Details

An alpha of version 3.3 of the Articles module is now available. This version is not yet recommended for live sites as it hasn't yet received sufficient community testing. Features may change and additional features may be added.

New Features include:
-Option to display Detail on Same Page as listing so the other module will still display.
-Option to display Detail on a completely different page
-Detail Page templates- Allows for modifying the look of the details page.

I use Persian language witch hasn't got any problem if database fields use nvarcher instead of varcher data type but in your installation package in data providers for SQL you use varcher data type for comments and that cause this problem.
if someone use different language such as Arabic or Persian his comment will be something like this "????? ????".
I solved this issue by changing:
stored procedure\Articles_Addcomments\fileds data type from varcher to nvarcher and also
tables\article_comments data type from varcher to nvarcher.
I suggest you to change the SQL data provider for none Latin language.
Thank for your useful module.

First of all i apraciate your effort
i'm gonna ask you for some additional facilities:
1-Is that possible for you to assign a code for every news, for example every Article has a 4 number code like 3569 and users can look for an article by having this code.
and also the other thing that i'm going to ask is that, it would be good if as we click on an article to see the details, at the end of the details there be a module which shows the similar subject by that article even if those artilce are in another category.
for example there is an article about computer, and as with click on the link to see the details , on details page, also shows the similar article that are containig the computer letter.
Thank u

Looks like your pretty close to a release though...
I would lose PortalId from the articles table, and perhaps even moduleid, since the articles aren't portal or module specific, but category specific.

I tried 3.3 on a dnn 4.4.1 but when I tried to open an article's details on another page (which also has an instance of the article module) it doesn't really seem to work.

Then I changed something in a article details template the module gave me an error.

Hi, I would still love an extra field besides the publish date and end date. I would call it something like article date or something...

- publish date decides when an article is visible
- end date decides when an aricle is not visible anymore

When I want to use the module as a kind of events module, I would like to display a date that is not necessarily the same as the publish date or the end date.

I would like this to be a seperate field, because it is of type date and you can then build in a sort function for this field.

Looks great, but still no ability to moderate/edit/delete comments?

That's the one functional problem remaining with the module - makes allowing comments for production sites a little risky.

Just tried this at I must say it works much better thant the 3.2.6. The way that you now can template the article details is great.
Just one thing: Are there any reason that you can specify the publishdate on the article list but only the post date on the article details?
It would be great if you could post the publishdate on the article details as well.

After successfully having upgraded the module from 3.2.6 to 3.3.0 on my testserver, I noticed two issues. a. when you look at the Article Detail, the module seems to use the Admin Skin instead of the normal portal skin. b. the options who is allowed to read the Article Detail, allow only for users who are logged in, where groups/profiles would make more sense?

Thank you for all the work you've been putting in this module thusfar and looking forward to the new version.

Uploading was fine. While adding was also ok. When read more is clicked the folowing error shows up.

Error: Unable to load the Article Details page.

I have just installed latest alpha version.

What when adding link is not working correctly? I choose for "Open in new window" same as 'target=_blank' but it's not adding the html code to the link?

Field Author now shows full user name, instead of login name / nickname. I think it was better before, because lot of users don't want their full name to be shown...

In version 3.3 of Articles, to have Articles display the author's username instead of fullname, in the templates, replace AuthorFullName with UserName.
