Hey now I suck hard at anything to do with cutenews, was wondering how you make the templates? Is it just a simple .css file that you upload to /data/ folder and select that template in options?
Would be really helpful if someone has maybe a link or the knowledge on how to do these, thankyou :)

in the page you put your include for cutenews on put;
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="lolol.css" />
Thankyou ever so much :) is there any code I need to put in for the headlines and where the actual news should be?
Basically all I want is a simple css box holding the content, headline above the box, thats all.
+repute.
For the template use something like this;
(you may need to change some of that)HTML Code:<div class="top">{title}</div>
<div class="content">
{full-story}
<br>
<i>Writen by {name}</i>
</div>
Then in the .css file put:
:)HTML Code:.top {
width: 500px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
border-bottom: 0px;
text-align: center;
}
.content {
width: 500px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
}
If you are the admin on your cutenews panel, go to Options > Customize templates
Something like that, and you will get up all the codey type stuff you need, the title etc.
Ahh yes, already did the css file :) just wanted the tags like {name} etc, didn't know them aha, thanks a bunch :)
Im not sure those tags are right lol, I made a thread on yahoo answers to find the full list :PQuote:

Right this could be due to my total stupidness but this is what I have done..
I understand there is html in the php but I followed what you said, I have also added the css into the default template but I get this error:PHP Code:<?php
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="test.css">
$number=5;
$category=1;
$start_from=1;
include("/home/site/public_html/cutenews/show_news.php");
?>
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/site/public_html/index.php on line 116

Bless you peasant but as I know nothing about cutenews and only followed chris's instructions you can hardly say I don't know php..Quote:

You forgot something hunny x
EDIT: Which also brings me to the point that echo is faster than print as it takes 463 ms to echo out a string of text and it takes 574 for print.
Knowing that doesn't exactly mean you rule at php, you don't even know the syntax so you will get nowhere until you've learnt it.Quote:

It bugs me that you are so cocky about everything, yet you can't do things overly correctly yourself. Also bugs me you banned my account on nivade because I told you about a possible security flaw, and yet I did nothing. Well done.
I don't know syntax when yours didn't work? right okay christopher columbus. In my defense I was simply following what tom said as I know absolutely jack shack about cutenews.Quote:

As matt kindly said you are in no place to talk due to your usersystem like "social network" and your coding not working/susceptible to injections.Quote:

Not posting in this thread anymore, as the creator of this thread is a complete noob.
Yeah.. typo in full functions.. Matt was posting to save a bunch of others doing it, you're as much of a noob at php as I am, we both make mistakes but you seem to think you rule over the rest. Please stay away from these forums if you thinkyou can rule the roost.Quote:

I would love a link to where I was sucking up, giving constructive criticism yes, but sucking up to someone that calls another person a noob... no. Plus why would I suck up to a c-grade php programmer when I run a respectful design studio in Guildford... Also during this advice I was giving you, you banned me for apparently trying to compromise the security of the site... when I said you should check it.
If we are using this immature language then in fact you are a 'noob' for even going anywhere near this pathetic word for an insult.
Now then it's about time you grow up minor, I can't believe people trust you with there details on an SNS.
Lol, fair enough - but you need to learn the syntax.
