Auto News Not Posting

Found your news ordering module on PHP-Nuke, and it works great Very Happy

except for one thing. Sad

When I create a news story, and give it an order number (0 for example) and then save it as an auto_news story, when the date arrives to post the auto story it gets lost.

I checked the sql tables for auto_news and there is no field for the display order so I presume the stories get lost as when the auto_news tries to post the story to the nuke_stories section, it cannot as there is no order field.

How could I correct it so that auto news will post ok. Could I make a field called display_order in auto_news, would that fix it ?

Sorry if my question sounds dumb, I am new to this.

Any help would be great.

I will have to look into this more. I double checked the logic and display_order should not have to be in autonews from what I see. It does not appear that that would matter, but I haven't stepped through the logic yet. I will get back to you on this.

See this thread. here is a person NOT using my mod and he has the same problem. I don't think the two are related.
