So... just curious, how many of you [that still use CuteNews] upgraded when the new and "improved" version came out?

I personally didn't, and went and found myself a copy of 1.3.6 to keep for reference [and future sites].

I wanna know what others did~~

I never upgraded to 1.4.0 because I don't want ugly "Content Management Powered by CuteNews" plastered all over my site. And for what, a WYSIWYG editor? No thanks. I'll stick with my 1.3.6 ^^

I guess. The RSS feed that I use for PN sucks in the way that I can't use special characters beacuse of a hack I had to add so that the RSS feed worked. o_O

From trying out the demo, I'm really not that impressed with PHP News. The admin interface isn't that great, and it seems to have pretty much the same features as CuteNews. The only advantage that I see is that it uses mySQL. =/

You aren't supposed to take it o_O

You can get rid of it by editting CSS as well, I know...

Cant you just take away the "Content Management Powered by CuteNews" by going to the show_news.php file and take it out?
because i upgraded and it seems ok.
You could, but it's not the right thing to do >.>;;

would CuteNews get you for that? O.o
I'll check in with the U.S.H.O. and see if it's illegal, after all I am now head of the illegal files/documents department =P

And I use the old one =P I didn't even know there was a new one xDD I'm fine with what I have now...

I use the new cutenews, I don't mind the new little tag... They want more popularity, who can blame them?

Besides it isn't big, and the new RSS Feed feature is darn worth that little tag.

There was a RSS feed you could add to the old =P

And the ad is stupid... they had a <!-- ad --> before and that was plenty...

What's the big deal with Admin Interface. I agree that the interface is a bit lame but still only you and your staff are going to see it. Where PHpNews really delivers the stuff is in your site.

AdminCPs are what makes up the product in the end. If you can't do anything in it... XD

Well I didn't upgrade to the new cutenews, though not because of the ads like everyone else.

...I'm just too lazy to do it. D:
Though really it's just one tiny ad, it's not the end of the world.
I mean, if it was a ginormous banner, then complaining wouldn't seem so stupid.

Heh, I don't use CuteNews. x3 No reason to, since I don't have any staff. Besides, my current server doesn't support PHP, so I wouldn't be able to anyway. :P

Still not going to sprite for your fangame. Sorry, but I don't really sprite or give out permission for people to use my fake Pokémon anymore.

I used to use coranto, but I go sick (actually just plain lazy) of doing all my html manually for inserting image tags and what not.

I personally never liked CuteNews, I used Fusion News but it has seemed to have closed down :\

So I ended up going with CuteNews, and thats where I am now...

I actually use CuteNews 1.3.5, since there is an XSS bug in 1.3.6(and the XSS bug is not in CN 1.3.5), and since I don't want a "Content Management Powered by CuteNews" on my website. Besides, if you know how to, you could mod version 1.3.x of CuteNews to add the features you need, or look for CuteNews 1.3.x modifications.

You don't like CuteNews? o_O;
I seem to remember you telling me how much you loved installing it a while back. O_o
