OK. Problem is I got it to work for the first topic but not the others. Don't ask me how I did that. All the rest of the topics will have the title "Articles - default title". I'm not able to change that however if I look in page control it's correct. Is there something else that overrides the header tags?

I have not done the last update of header tags. Can that change anything?

Be sure you have checked the root checkbox for the articles/topics in Page Control. And since you are using SEO5, you have to run it in rewrite mode.

HI Jack,
I have been using this mod sucessfully for a while. I just added a new article that is several pages long but when viewed through my site it is truncated to the first page of the article. Is there a field I need to change to extend the viewable length?

There aren't any pages code in this addon and the article description field uses text for the size so you wouldn't be reaching its limit. If you are using an html editor, maybe the code is being truncated somehow?

Hi! I have a small problem: When selecting "Display Box Articles - All Topics Section" the different topics shows all right, but when clicking on one, it will show all articles from all topics (and not just the one topic selected). Same thing happens when clicking on the topic link in an article - all articles from all topics come on screen.

What to do?

I have not changed any code (at least I think so), and when looking raw in the database, the articles have the right topic ID. So problem is when calling on a topic?

By the way - great contrib! Just what I needed :)

I don't know what that might be. I just tried it on my site and only the articles in the topic I clicked on are shown. That is controlled by the code in the addon so the only thing that I can think of is that you are not using the latest version. Though I've never heard of this problem before so I don't think that would make a difference. This assumes you are using one of the 1_57 versions.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I'm using the latest version. When hoovering over the topic-links, it looks OK (www.mysite.com/articles.php/article_title-t-1

But when clicking on it, it will not only list topic 1, but also all the other topics :(

If you are using a url rewrtier, try turning it off to see if that is the problem. Otherwise, I've no other ideas.

Ahh, yes. When turning off "Ultimate Seo Urls 5 PRO" it works like a charm. Now I just have to figure out a way to prevent that add-on from rewriting the topic urls

I have just installed Articles Manager V 1.57_7 and I got a problem with box width.

I use images as box headings as per oscommerce documentation (page 31) and I added new class  in includes/classes/boxes.php  where I also defined box width in pixels - it used to work with all other boxes but when i switch on the article box it is wider and doesn't seem to read the width I have set for that box so all boxes become wider and my layout breaks.

Any ideas what i'm doing wrong?

Try removing the styles code in the articles box file.

Can I quickly ask what software you are using for this lovely blog website? I really like the layout and everything.

Thanks in advance.

Thuis can be found in the addons area, or if you want the easy way try here http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/1709

I am not a coder, so dont bother sending PMs asking for help as you wont get any.  

OSC has a steep learning curve, but in general the program does work.  If it doesnt work, the chances are it is something you have done.
