Features

• New user groups
  
  Now you have the ability to create your own user groups. This gives you complete control over which sections of the script users can access.
  You can also define which posts that user can access
  
  1. Their own
  2. Their own and all users with an access level below them
  3. All posts
  
  
• Private messaging
  
  Now users can communicate with each other via the private messaging system
  
  
  
• BBCode
  
  BBCode has been added to both adding/editing news and private messaging
  
  
  
• Integrating news is now easier than ever. If you want to show a certain category when including your news simply add
  
  
  Code:
  <?php 
$cat = "Category name"; 
include 'news/index.php';
?>
  
  This will show all the posts within that category. If a category isn't specified the default category is displayed. If you want to display all categories change cat to all, $cat = "all";
  
  
  Code:
  <?php
$author = "Author name";
include 'news/index.php';
?>
  
  This will display all posts for the specified author, if no author is specified all authors posts are shown.
  
  
  Code:
  <?php
$template = "Template name";
include 'news/index.php';
?>
  
  This will use a certain template, if no template is specified whichever template is selected as default will be used.
  
  
  Code:
  <?php
$template = "Template name";
$author = "Author name";
$cat = "Category name":
include 'news/index.php';
?>

  You can always mix and match the above methods.
  
  
• Restructuring templates
  
  Now you have the ability to completely restructure how each news element is displayed, for example if you wanted the news pagintation to be displayed above as well as below news posts this is now possible.

i have a bit of a problem.. when i go to install it.. it says db.php is missing.. it wasn't provided... or do i just create it? cause it doesn't say anywhere

i tried creating db.php and making it 777 chmod, but didn't work

did you run install.php?

yea... and when i get to the end of it.. it says like can't find db.php... i even looked in the install file and it had a php include for db.php but u never included into the folder...

this is what i get...

Warning: include(db.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /www/zxq.net/w/e/f/wefckingown/htdocs/n-13news/install.php on line 57

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'db.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /www/zxq.net/w/e/f/wefckingown/htdocs/n-13news/install.php on line 57

right after i click install after step 2....

Ah it seemed to be a permission problem, when developing I had full permissions on my dev machine so I forgot to add a check to see if the script was able to create the db.php file, I've done a few more tests and also added a blank db.php file with the script now, it should also give you a warning if the file isn't writable. What I'd suggest you do is re-download it (I've updated it slightly) and try again, hopefully it'll work this time

lol, thx.. let me try now... hopefully it works.. thx alot

Edit:

it didn't work.. now i get this

Access denied for user 'vhostswww'@'10.10.124.196' (using password: NO)
------------------------
I didn't have trouble with version 2..?

Sorted.

haha thx alot for the help earlier... you really helped me... and btw i added a different index page where you have to select what browser you are using at the time... so if they are using firefox or something else the navigation works =D
