Announcing Swedish language files for Pro_News 3.2. In the Downloads section.

Thanks to radoka over at DragonflyCMS for putting the work in to creating this.

As always I am more than happy to host any translation files for Pro_News. (And submission of same will earn you membership to the Sponsors group.) So if you already have one, are are thinking of building one, please let me know. TIA!

Pro_News 3.2.1 is available.

Included are the Featured Content Slider which can be used to display a large number of pictures in a small space, as a slideshow alternative or both, and a Coppermine hack to allow Batch Upload without resorting to ftp. Plus a few small improvements, details on download page.   البقية... ...

A screen shot of the final version of the (future) Featured Content Slider is on the left, but you can test out a live version in the demo below. (Click read more to view.) This Slider was created by simply selecting a Photo Album, as previously, and using a brand new template. No changes to the Submit Article user interface at all. Now, instead of the Photo Album images appearing as separate images on the page as before, they appear in a single Slider. No formating or anything else special for the submitter to do!   البقية... ...

As any of you who've been following will know, I wanted to add a "Featured Content" like display into Pro_News. (If you don't know what I mean by Featured Content, then do a search on DragonflyCMS for the post by greenday2k, or take a look at the original developers Dynamic Drive.)

Anyway, I've got it working, see screen capture alongside. Note this is ENTIRELY done in Pro_News template, no change to Pro_News code at all. A strong vindication as to the power of Pro_News templates!   البقية... ...

Just to let everyone know that the latest and best Pro_News available is now ready, initially just for Sponsors, but it will be released to Registered Members shortly, and then everyone.

Lots and lots of small but useful enhancements, continuing the push to make Pro_News easier to deploy and manage.

Update: Now available to all. Enjoy! And please think about the Donation ...

Update: If you downloaded as a Sponsor before 17 Oct 09, please read this. 1 file needs to be updated. Sorry!   البقية... ...

Just to let everyone know that the latest and greatest Pro_News is now available, initially just for Sponsors, but now for all Registered Members

A lot of small but useful enhancements mostly, the sort of thing which makes building and running the site easier, even if you can't actually put your finger on exactly what changed. Most every annoyance I found when building Pro_News centric websites have been addressed, all minor though I must say, along with all the enhancements requested.

Plus the Submit Article screen has been made much more approachable.   البقية... ...
