After I heard phpBB was integrated into PHP-Nuke, I decided to investigate
what they had in PHP-Nuke and what I found was a few useful things that
they've taken from other Open Source projects and integrated them into PHP-
Nuke.
One of them was the News Feeds they have in it. Its from a script I've
looked at a few times off HotScripts.com. So I decided to port the REAL
script to phpWebSite like PHP-Nuke did.
Right now I have the news feeds running on my test site at the address
below if anyone wants to see what it looks like.
I hope this can get integrated into the phpWebSite code base once I
finalize the code. I've made a new PHP file in the base installation
directory called Functions.PHP and put the function for the headlines in
this file. I hope to move other functions out of the theme.php into this
file also to make the theme files alot cleaner in my humble opinion :)
I want to take this a step further than PHP-Nuke and have the actual news
feed stored in a table and not in a cache file like the script currently
handles the news feeds. Once this is done, I want to add the news feeds to
the rest of the block code, not the same table as regular blocks but have
it so you can control the positioning of the news blocks on the page.
Please let me know what you think.
