i was looking for an easy news / weblog system. With just a few adjustments, phpMyFaq is also usable for news.
- i created one category; called it news, but I think you already guessed that,
- edited a couple of templates; mostly removing options / fields / etc
- changed 1 line of code in functions.php; when retrieving the articles, they are sorted ascending (default) by the ID. I added the option DESC so the last article created will be shown first.
Although this is more then good enough for us, I was thinking of a small addon or fork of phpMyFaq, maybe called phpMyNews. The table of the articles should have an extra date; not only date-modified but also "news-date". And when retrieving all articles, the sorting should be by "news-date".
- Another change in functions.php would be desirable; search results should also be descending.

Hi,
nice idea.
The second date column is planned for phpMyFAQ since ages, maybe I get it into 1.6.

phpMyChangeLog
It didn't take much time to realise that phpMyFaq is also very usable for informing customers about the changelog. Normaly a plain text-file is used. With phpMyChangeLog it is possible to present the change log with more detail, information, links, etc.
Example:
http://www.free2use.info/changelog/inde ... show&cat=1
http://www.free2use.info/news/index.php ... show&cat=1
everything in dutch, but you understand the idea
Great software! Thank you!
