Where do I find this in the code and how can insert it in...

All it says in the box is this is for testing purposes.  I switched to php and nothing.  An I missing something?

Yes, you'll need to set your articles up just like I did the test article. Put a title in the top, the body of the article will contain the info about the show. The intro will contain the date|sag_rating|episode_number.

Then you use the php article with the code I provided to call the articles in the list.

Got it..  I will play with it this weekend and start adding the shows.  Thanks!

Looks like it is working great.  Can you help me find a formating issue on the page?  I want the whole table to show up underneath the star trek pic.

Please let me know what i am missing.

One more thing.  How easy do you think it would be for me to go into my sql and populate these articles.  My goal right now is to basically make the format a template for all the shows then go back and do the review after I have all of the articles up.  This way even while I am getting to the article the user still has a chance to comment on the show.  If I can figure out an easy way to put all of the articles up with the few exceptions like the show name and number it will be the same until I go and add content later.  Let me know what you think and if this even makes sense.

Thanks!!

I fixed the table to be underneath the category icon. As for what you're asking about using MySQL or phpMyAdmin I don't quite get what you're asking. I don't think you could make it automated if thats what you're asking. At least at this point, I can't think of a way.

Yeah I think you know what I mean about automating it..  It would be great to see something like an easy populate similar to oscommerce.  What I was thinking was to down load the individual table and manually imput the information that way.  I dont know what each of the fields represent and how they are populated to do it manually..  Maybe I can have someone setup a script client side that will just input the script over and over or something.  With as many shows that star trek has alone it could take forever.  No worries I will figure it out.

You have been awesome and I appreciate your help!  PS Could you recomend a template that I can manually put in a header instead of using the style sheet method.  Thanks!

I don't know of any templates that make it that easy. You'll find that quite a lot of the themes already on this site have already had people ask to put a logo in the top if you search the posts in the respective boards/topics. Just post in the theme topic or ask the author of the theme if you get stuck.

I got pulled off this project but I am back. Two questions based on what we have talked about so far.

1. Do you know if there is something out there that will take the articles and arrange them in a sort order?  If not is that difficult?

2. Anybody know of a form processor program or script that would allow me to generate 50 of the same article then I would go back and make the necessary changes to the article, because most of the content stays the same.  Thanks!

There are no sorting features built into the article system until TP 1.0 (besides changing the date manually one by one).

There no form that can do this made, yet. I might be able to take a look at that this weekend if I get some time.

When is the new TP coming out.  I am planing on adding tp to about 30 sites and may wait until it is finished.  Thanks!
