article submit

[jbrock]

Is there a module out there which allows users to submit their own articles. i saw one one on http://www.allydirectory.com/articles/ but i do not know what they are using.

Thanks

Just the thing i needed.

Can someone please confirm if it works with the PHPLd 3.2 Bid Version as well ?

that's not a phplinkbid is it? i haven't yet but i do plan on trying to install it...I don't think there is a reason why it wouldn't work

will work on PhpLD bid. The code base for articles is the same.

I am using the same in my http://www.drchetan.com/healthdirectory/

If you want another example of the Monster-Submit article Mod on a 3.2 install, I have one here: http://www.awayaway.com/articlesubmit.php, although I modified it a bit to add a few extra fields to allow for a user URL, Site name, Site Tag etc.

It was easy to install and the instructions are spot on.

Hi Bruce,
could you please write the code you added?
Thank you

I'm not going to paste everything i did as I sort of made it up as I went along by trial and error! So anything I paste will not be complete and will likely cause you bigger problems!

All I can tell you is that I added fields to the database and assigned them to the template for the article mod and made sure I used the existing smarty verification routines.

There is a lot of help in the forums regarding adding fields to the database and there is a great tutorial available at Monster-Submit in the phpLD vault that will help. That''s I how I found out how to do it.
