phpBB Modders Article System?

[ZakRhino]

Hello I see the article system here on phpBB Modders and have not been able to find any type of article system in any research I done so far. Below is says, "articles system written by igor (and not hidde)" I wanted to know if the user Igor has release this as a mod or where I can find this mod at or something close to a article system out there somewhere?
Thanks

Hi. I am Igor. And I've not released the code so far, sorry. I may consider it in the future, though.

No problem thanks now I know whom you are. Thanks you did make a great mod. Can't wait for it to come out. Till then you have any good directions to point me to check out where I can find something like the article system you mad? I check phpBB mod list but no good.

I know Mr_Bond (a.k.a. Deadpool) has something similar that he's built and is currently developing over on his site.

It's not released yet though, since it hasn't stabilized in the development lifecycle.

Is it going to be released?

I have cloned it for someone else but won't be releasing it. The clean urls took more than 5 days to get them to work properly because phpBB uses relative paths. The issue is that for PHP includes, the path is relative to the actual file that is calling it, but for images and CSS and such, the path is relative to the URL in the browser. So I had to do some crazy PHP to switch around phpbb_root_path depending on where you are in the file and what you're trying to do.

I wonder how Igor got it working...

Simple: A template::display() hook that does a preg_replace, converting all URLs to something usable. That fixes the URLs for phpBB's template variables. The custom site variables are generated directly as "cute URLs" and need no conversion.

I do believe there's a hook in the library that does this, as well.

Oh yeah, I actually published it: viewtopic.php?p=20651#p20651

Wow I should have asked sooner. That would have saved me a good few days of scratching my head and threatening my computer that I would toss it out the window if it didn't start working.

Thanks a ton for the share!
