After listening to some feedback from our users, I'm to say it is starting to sell! Just today, one of our users reported that it was running faster than two commercial scripts he had tried. (here: http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2479) From the creators of PHP Link Directory, the Article Script is an easy way to add content to your site, or allow others to submit content and watch your site grow. Search Engine Friendly Pages - The directories and the articles use good page titles and urls to make it easy for search engines to index your site. Mod rewrite can be turned on or off. Uses the Fcked Editor - One of the most popular editors is now integrated into the script allowing easy cut and paste of formated text. There is an option to use a simple editor or an advanced editor with more features. Create Categories and Subcategories - You can create an unlimited number of categories for your articles. Most Recent Articles are displayed on the homepage so search engines will quickly find the new content. User Submitted Articles - By default user submitted articles are "locked" until approved by the administrator. In the admin panel, you can view the latest submitted articles and then unlock them if you like them or delete them. Smarty Template System is used for the templates in the script allowing designers to design and programmers to program. Easily add your own header and footer, and integrate with the "look and feel" of your site. Database Tested - has been tested on databases with over 30,000 articles, and runs faster than more expensive commercial scripts. Hopefully you will see this is a great value for only $10. The price will not stay this low. We will be adding more features soon. This is a great opportunity to purchase before the price increases.

Looked at this one when you first posted. So, what the hey! Only ten bucks, so I just purchased. One question...any updates, will present purchasers get them?
I would also like to know how the updates will work... I think I'm going to purchase this one too. Edit: Ok, I paid for it without waiting for an answer...
Hi, you can expect to get updates the the 1.0 version for at least a few more months. I don't have an automated system in place yet, but you can always ask. At some point in the future (at least 3-6 months away), I may reserve the right to charge for a "2.0 version", but I will make sure it is well worth it, and it probably won't be a lot more (ex. phpLD). Thanks for your support, and I hope the script is fun to use, and profitable too!
Thanks dvduval, that was a fast reply. I'm off for the night to go watch a movie and relax, I'll come and check my email for the script information and whatnot when I'm done and post iTrader feedback etc.
Hello. I wanted to buy the script but I have a question. Do you have option to add users who don't have the admin priviledge? I checked your admin panel on demo site and I found that every user created has same priviledge. I mean users who can just add the articles and cannot do anything else like adding/deleting accounts?
The iTrader feature is a way for DP users to leave feedback for everyone else when they complete a transaction, your iTrader rating is displayed in the Buy Sell and Trade area for everyone to see below your join date and post count. You just click on the number there to leave people feedback as either the buyer or the seller to let everyone else know how the transaction went.
Yep, Great new feature I think Send me a PM with details pls. Also are there and restrictions as to how many domains I can use this on? Thanks!
If good old syncmaster would create about 3 templates. Just so I would have a choice and so that many sites would not have the same look. I put up the script here to just see what it is like to mess around with. Will have to hunt up a domain for it. Except the instructions say "no root"? Can I put it direct into public_html and not a folder? Or into a sub-domain? http://www.tebids.com/articles PS...hang tight, itrader on the way.
You can install it in root just fine. This is an old note. Sorry about that. About templates, I wanted to mention that you should be able to modify the templates to fit your site, as it uses smarty. Here is an example www.shelleyduval.com (this is my wife's site)
Is it necessary to link to the script in the footer with the paid version? I assume not but just want to make sure. Getting payment to you now.
It would be most appreciated (but not required). If support (through link back) is good, it will make it easier for me to keep the price low for everyone as the script becomes more advanced.
I had quite a few folks implement the script on their site in the last week. Thanks to everybody who purchased the script. I will hold my promise to keep making it better for everyone.
