Issue 1. normally I think you would just upload and overwrite the old files with new version. I can't find any info to verify this and I'm reluctant to wipe out what I have by being careless..any advice
Issue 2. Can you restore news items that have been archive - only talking 3 items

Hi

I have a new website that I want to use CuteNews on. Unfortunately although I am using the most recent download of 2.0.3 I am getting: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in E:\Domains\h\my website-1080363921\user\htdocs\cutenews.2.0.3\core\core.php on line 300

I can't find anything obvious at line 300. I dont get it surely this is not happening with other people who have downloaded this version.

UPDATE: I was using PHP 5.2 I have upgraded to PHP 5.6 and the install is now working The next problem my files are not writeable. I cannot alter the permissions since I am hosted on a Windows 2008 server.

I'll arrange to transfer hosting to Unix and try again.

Hi

I have successfully migrated from CuteNews 1.4.6 to 2.0.3 the trouble is all my news is now showing the HTML tags

Can anyone help with this issue as my website is now spoilt. my website

There shouldn't be any problems with upgrading from 1.4.6 to 2.0.3. Please use migration for this purpose.

You can try using the following code. It needs to be embedded at the end of the core/ckeditor/styles.js file.

(function() {
    /**
     * Check for a paste event and replace <p> </p> with blank
     */

    CKEDITOR.on('instanceReady', function( e ) {
        e.editor.on('paste', function(ev) {

            ev.data.dataValue = ev.data.dataValue.replace(/<p[^>]*><br\s*\/?><\/p>/ig,'');
            ev.data.dataValue = ev.data.dataValue.replace(/<p[^>]*> <\/p>/ig,'');

        }, null, null, 9);
    });

    CKEDITOR.plugins.add('ckeditor_paragraph_paste_fix', {
    });
})();

To create and center an image, kindly follow the steps:

1. Create and open a news item in CKEditor.

2. Click Insert Image and in the opened window click the Browse Server button.

3. Upload an image (or choose an existing one).

4. Click on the title of the image.

5. When the image will appear in the popup window, click on the lock symbol (optionally).

6. You will see the image size parameters (300 pixels in width and the height of the image set by default). Click OK.

7. Click on Source.

8. Instead of the <p> tag, enveloping <img>, enter <center>, add or save the news.

9. You get the result.

To insert from Word try the following steps:

10. Go to Dashboard> System configurations.

In Row 1, add  ",PasteFromWord" after PasteText " to get the following:

Source,Maximize,Scayt,PasteText,PasteFromWord,Undo,Redo,Find,Replace,-,SelectAll,RemoveFormat,NumberedList,BulletedList,Outdent,Indent

After that, use the button with this icon. Simple copying / pasting in CKEDitor may not help.
We also need to mention that the plugin is the official one from the developers of CKEditor and we are not responsible for the way the information will be displayed by CKEditor and its plug-ins.

As to the search, please provide a link to the post or write here how you work with the search, for us to understand the process better.

To activate the highlight of the results, it is necessary to enable the Highlight search option in Dashboard> System configurations.
After that, an additional parameter & qhl = (your search) will be added for the SERPs, which will highlight areas in the news when you click on them.

Thanks Perry

There is already a solution at least for getting rid of the new lines that are created. Unfortunately, I am having trouble with getting it work. See new line post

I am aware of the plugin but I want to get familiar with the new version of Cutenews before I look at plugins.

I have found that under System Configurations there is a tab for CKeditor. The possible settings can be reviewed here CKeditor 3.x/Developers

I have added the additional option to the CKeditor: PasteFromWord  but it doesn't make any difference to what would have been achieved by using Control +V. I think that the addon must be installed all the button does is provide the option to use the features available in the addon.

I'll try the plugin/addon referred to by Perry after I have completed my current website.

I still need help with this issue.  I have updated the post and included a link to the modified Home page so that the Search box can be tested. Using ECHO statements the results of the search do get to the show news include.

Hi all,

I know a site which is using Cutenews and currently has about 8000 stories controlled by Cutenews and growing.

Is there a point at which Cutenews can become unstable?

Whats the max records people have used Cutenews with?

Kind regards
