News Ordering

Heh Raven ...

As if I don't have a zillion other things to fix right now Confused

... I thought I'd try to install the News Ordering hack. What nuker couldn't resist ordering?

The thing is ... in my version of admin/modules/stories.php it has code for all the associated topics input and output that FB installed since 6.5. And variables for time/date are diff too. (though probably irrelevant, ie: $xmonth and $month)

I've been comparing lines of code in stories.php for about an hour now... and have just about reached the bottom, hacking away like a good girl.... and totally skeptical that this ever going to work.

I need another coffee, if it does work for production site Raven's nuke 6.9, with authors table mods, what are the compatible chances for my other nuke sites?

Code:

function previewAdminStory($automated, $year, $day, $month, $hour, $min, $subject, $hometext, $bodytext, $topic, $catid, $ihome, $alanguage, $acomm, $display_order, $pollTitle, $optionText)

Below is my current version ... of course, one has to go through function after function... (wondering if I'm talking myself into xoops?) and $display_order should be where??? Maybe the answer is in the sql?

Code:

function previewAdminStory($automated, $year, $day, $month, $hour, $min, $subject, $hometext, $bodytext, $topic, $catid, $ihome, $alanguage, $acomm, $pollTitle, $optionText, $assotop)

If these variables are not ordered... oops, right?
sigh

Wishing on the perfect nuke for christmas... perfectnuke.net Wink

The placement of $display_order is only relevant to the code that calls the function. In other words, if $display_order is the fifth argument, then the code that calls the function has to reference it as the fifth argument. Does that help?
