News Box Manager v3.0.0 [Support Thread]

[DragonLady]

I guess we can consider it "fixed". :) If it starts malfunctioning again I'll letcha know. :)

Thank-you all for your time. :)

Is there a way to add (or change) the pagination in the admin panel? I'm up to 50+ articles and scrolling to the bottom to insert a new one every time is a bit taxing.

It would be nice if I could at least set it to only display 25 or so at a time?

The admin pagination uses the value in Configuration :: Maximum Values :: Admin Search Results Per Page.

Aha! I didn't realize that pertained to the news box. Thank-you sooo much! That is very helpful.

I really enjoy this mod, however none of the articles seem to be searchable thru the web search function on my site, and I don't have a contents page with it. Is there a way to set these options up? I have all the keywords in, however they don't appear to be searchable.

I have 6 categories for mine, and currently 64 articles across those categories.

v 3.2.1

Not an issue, or a least not a big one.

I set in the admin profile for a limited admin access the [all types] to be accessed, but when going to tool > News Box Manager [all types] i get:

Sorry, your security clearance does not allow you to access this resource.
Please contact your site administrator if you believe this to be incorrect.
Sorry for any inconvenience.

If I select in the admin profile the type 1/2/3/4 they are accessable, yet the all types is not.
What am I missing?

Probably nothing. It'll take me a bit to research your issue.

Don't take it the wrong way and I apologize in advance for my ignorance but:

What s the difference between this plugin and the EZ pages?

Both can be displayed in sideboxes and have similar options except for the Meta details....

Are the articles stored in the database as well?

Can be php code be used within the content of articles?

Would the use of "articles" be better as opposed to have a separate blog ( using wordpress on a subdomain or similar)

I am just trying to understand the pros/cons of this plugin.

Thank you

Point taken, the differences are
1. The sidebox displays the latest news.
2. The articles can be displayed in a front-page centerbox.
3. Separate integration with SitemapXML.
