Could someone please explain how I go about bypassing article approval? Instead of the admin having to approve each article, I would like for it to post automaticly.

Oh, and let me say, as a newbie to PHP, I've searched through many PHP-Nuke Forums looking for help on various subjects, and Codewiz by far exceeds them all when it comes to helping and being friendly about it. I've seen some very rude responces when it comes to a newbie asking for help. So a big PAT on the back!

Before I forget, I use Nuke 7.5

Any help greatly appreciated.

*Updated* I thought I had found the fix (located here in the forums) but after I did it, the news didn't show up at all, but I would get a mail telling me I had news on my site which showed what I had posted, but yet, it's not on the site anywhere, and it's not waiting to be approved. I put everything back the way it was before, but still, the posted news is not showing. I hope someone can help me figure this all out.
Thanks

Hi, thanks for answering. Yes, I did try that, and now everything is messed up, even after I changed it back to the orginal. Now, when you post, I recieve mail saying you have news on your site and it shows in the mail what was posted, but it's not showing up on the site itself and it's nowhere to be found. Does anyone have copies of the submit news.php that I can have so I can replace it? I'll post mine here, maybe someone will see if I have a mistake.
Thanks

Here's a default index.php from Nuke 7.5.

Thanks Echo. I appreciate the help. For the life of me, I can't see the difference between the two examples you showed. I've download the full one you provided and will give it a shot.

You guys are great! thanks for all the help.

Well, I replaced the the old index with the new one you gave me, and it still didn't work. It's not posting to the site, and it's not waiting to be approved. I don't know what's wrong. I hope someone can help me figure this out. the site is [ Register or login to view links on this board.] if you need to take a look. I really appreciate y'all trying to help.

I might have found the problem, but not sure. Is this the correct code for the mainfile.php for 7.5? I think I might have used a wrong thread when doing the bypass article, and used one for an older nuke.

  function formatAidHeader($aid) {
    global $prefix, $db;
    $result = $db->sql_query("SELECT url, email FROM ".$prefix."_authors WHERE aid='$aid'");
    $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result);
    $url = $row['url'];
    $email = stripslashes($row['email']);
    if (isset($url)) {
        $aid = "<a href=\"$url\">$aid</a>";
    } elseif (isset($email)) {
   $aid = "<a href=\"mailto:$email\">$aid</a>";
    } else {
   $aid = $aid;
    }
    echo "$aid";
}


Anyone?

Can anyone help with this problem? It seems to be my only major problem left, and it's a big one for a site that relies on articles/news and such.

Ghost...Not sure what to make out of all this. I really don't understand what you've tried, and how many times those files have been edited. One thing you have to carve in stone here: Backup. When editing, moding, altering, whatever...backup first! record your steps, it is so much easier to follow through that way. Just a FYI for the future. icon_wink.gif

Ok, here's how the whole mess happened. I had been reading the Nuke-How To on NukeCops, learning how to do differnt things. Here's the page for what I apptempted to do that caused the problem. [ Register or login to view links on this board. ] and the other link that is on the page. Oh, and trust me, Echo, I backup everything now.

hope that makes sense.

Echo and Telli, I know you'll be relieved to know I sloved my problem! icon_wink.gif Now maybe I can give you folks some peace & quiet. I was pouring through each file I might have messed with when attempting to try that fix for automatic story submission and I noticed that in the root/submit news / there were two files named index. One was index.php, the other was index php.txt. I'm assuming when I uploaded the index I had saved, I hadn't saved it as php. Anyways, I removed the odd one, and bingo! All fixed now.
Thanks for putting up with me!
