Hi

Im in the process of building a big arse yahoo style site, using phpld, newstopica, articlescript and PhPBB (Forum).

What im worried about:
Is there somewhere in newstopica, where you can set an expire date for imported news ? , i mean my DB will become mega huge if i cannot get rid of old news.

Maybe something like delete news older than 30 days.

In the latest version of newstopica, you can delete news older than a certain date. This can also be done pretty easily with a sql statement. I'm starting to have a beta available for Newstopica 2.0, but there have been a couple of bugs. When I get back from out of town (March 6), I plan to try to "get serious" about finishing 2.0.
