[FAQ] I have forgotten my password

In The latest CuteNews versions there is a lost-password function included!
This won't work when your host doesn't allow you to send mails.
Then try the following

You can't retrieve your lost password but you can change it. To change your password, open users.db.php that is located in you CuteNews folder. Then find the line in users.db.php where is displayed your username after your username there should be a | and then a long string of letters and numbers, this is your crypted password. Now you should delete this password string and make a new password in md5 format, you can do this using this tool (or google for md5 encoder when this tool doesn't work), then replace with your new password and save.

[FAQ] Why the archived news are still showed on my page?

CuteNews has this kind of function that will always display the X latest news on your site if you use the include code with $number;

Example:
If you have just archived all your news and dont use $number in your include code, on your page whre news should appear there wont be shown any news. But if you use $number in your include code then CuteNews will get the X latest news from the last archive and will display them, so on your page will always be displayed the X latest news.

[HACK] Automatic Short Story

Name: Automatic Short Story
Author: StealthEye
Updated by: FUNimations
CuteNews Compatibility: 1.3.6 - * (no incompatibility reported yet)
Description: This hack will allow you when adding news to add only the Full story and the Short story to be auto-generated from the first X characters of the full story.
Now you can use [truncate=X]...[/truncate] in your templates.

CODE

[truncate=10]1234567890[/truncate]   ->   1234567890
[truncate=10]12345678901[/truncate]   ->   1234567...
[truncate=10]12345678901234567890[/truncate]   ->   1234567...

You should be able to do the same on a title, like

CODE

[truncate=20]{title}[/truncate]

if the title is longer than 20 chars, it will be truncated
Instructions:
Find this snippet of code in shows.inc.php 2 times:

CODE

$output = str_replace("{cute-http-path}", $config_http_script_dir, $output);

and below both, put this:

CODE

// Truncate v1.0 - addblock
if (!function_exists(clbTruncate)) {
function clbTruncate($match) {
if (strlen($match[2]) > $match[1]) {
return substr($match[2], 0, $match[1] - 3) . '...';
} else {
return $match[2];
}
}
}
$output = preg_replace_callback('#\[truncate=(.*?)\](.*?)\[/truncate\]#i', clbTruncate, $output);
// Truncate v1.0 - End addblock

*Update by FUNimations
CuteNews doesn't allow empty short stories. This error was reported with CN 1.4.6, older versions may also have this problem
In addnews.mdu find

CODE

if(trim($short_story) == "" or !$short_story){ msg("error","Error !!!","The story can not be blank.", "java script:history.go(-1)"); }

and put

CODE

in front of it.
