It sounds like there may be a few different issues at play here. Let's try to troubleshoot them one by one:

CKEditor not working: Have you checked to make sure that the CKEditor plugin is installed and enabled in your CN version 1.5.3 installation? If it is, you may want to check the configuration settings for the plugin to make sure they are correct. Additionally, you may want to check for any errors in the browser console when trying to load the editor, as this could give you some clues as to what is going wrong.

Emoticons not working: Similarly, have you checked to make sure that the emoticons plugin is installed and enabled in your CN installation? If it is, you may want to check the configuration settings for the plugin to make sure they are correct. You may also want to check that the emoticons themselves are still present in the correct folder on your server.

Updating to CN 2.0.2: If you're having trouble updating to the latest version of CN, there could be a few reasons for this. First, make sure you're following the upgrade instructions provided by CN carefully. Additionally, you may want to check your server logs to see if there are any errors that are preventing the upgrade from completing successfully.

It's difficult to say exactly what's causing the problem without more information about the code and the search functionality you're using. However, here are a few potential reasons why including that code might cause search to stop working:

The cn_api_get_entry() function may be modifying the output of the page in a way that interferes with the search functionality. For example, it could be adding or removing HTML elements, or modifying the content of the page in some way that causes the search algorithm to break.

The cn_api_get_entry() function may be conflicting with other scripts or libraries that are used by the search functionality. This could cause errors or unexpected behavior that prevents the search from working correctly.

The inclusion of the cn_api.php file may be causing naming conflicts or other issues that prevent the search from functioning properly. This could happen if the file defines functions or variables that have the same names as functions or variables used by the search functionality.

To diagnose the issue, you may want to try the following:

Disable the cn_api_get_entry() function and see if the search starts working again. If it does, then you know that the function is causing the problem and you can investigate further to figure out why.

Check for any error messages or console output that may be related to the search functionality. These could give you a clue as to what's going wrong.

Look for any conflicts or naming issues between the cn_api.php file and the search functionality. You may need to rename functions or variables to avoid conflicts.

If none of the above steps work, you may need to reach out to the developer of the search functionality or the cn_api.php file for further assistance. for more help  Nexus Iceland

Yes, there are many websites that are using PHP 8. PHP 8 was released in November 2020 and since then, many web developers and website owners have started using it to take advantage of its new features and improvements in performance and security.

PHP 8 brings several significant changes to the language, such as improved type safety, new features for error handling, and enhancements to performance. These changes make PHP 8 an attractive option for developers and website owners who want to build faster and more secure websites.

If you are considering using PHP 8 for your website, it's important to note that not all web hosting providers may support it yet. You should check with your hosting provider to see if they offer support for PHP 8 or if they have plans to do so in the near future. hope so these suggestion will help you dear.  BenefitsCal

Hello,
It seems that there may be a configuration issue with the CuteNews comment feature. Here are some steps you can take to try to make the email field optional:

Log in to your CuteNews admin panel and navigate to the "Settings" section.
Click on "Comment Settings".
Check if there is an option to make the email field optional. If there is, make sure it is enabled. If not, continue to the next step.
Locate the "comment.html" file in your CuteNews installation directory. This file is typically located in the "templates" folder.
Open the "comment.html" file in a text editor and search for the line of code that defines the email field. It should look something like this:
graphql

<input type="text" name="useremail" size="25" maxlength="60" value="">
Remove the "required" attribute from the email field. This attribute is what is causing the email field to be a required field. Your updated code should look like this:
graphql
CheckMyRota Argos

<input type="text" name="useremail" size="25" maxlength="60" value="">
Save the changes to the "comment.html" file and upload it to your CuteNews installation directory.
Once you have completed these steps, the email field should be optional when submitting a comment on your website. If you continue to encounter issues, you may want to reach out to CuteNews support for further assistance. Hope so this suggestion will help you .

Hello,
Pleased to see your issue I would like to help you here
It looks like you are trying to create a link to a specific FullStory article in CN 2.0. To create a link in CN 2.0, you can use the following code:

<a class="article_link" href="index.php?action=fullstory&category={category-id}&id={news-id}&title={title}" target="_self">OptOnline</a>

Replace {category-id}, {news-id}, and {title} with the corresponding values for your FullStory article.

In CN 2.0, the link to a FullStory article uses the "index.php" page with the "fullstory" action, followed by the category ID, news ID, and title. The "target" attribute specifies where to open the linked document. In this case, it's set to "_self" which means that the linked document will open in the same window/tab.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.  ConnectEBT
