CMS Made Simple Forums

Hey!

Not really much of a question but I trying to make a archive for my {news} entries. Basically, I want to send a variable in {news} like this: {news start=$variable}. This obviously does not work but I hope you get my idea. I'm sending the code aswell.

{php}
if (!isset($_GET['archive'])) {
  $archive = 0;
}
else {
    $archive = (int)$_GET['archive'];
}

$archivenext = ($archive + 5);
$archiveprevious = ($archive - 5);

$n = mysql_query("SELECT news_id FROM cms_se_module_news WHERE news_category_id = '1'");
$num = mysql_num_rows($n);

echo "";

if ($archiveprevious >=0)
{
echo "Previous";
echo " ";
}

if ($archivenext Next";
}
echo "";
{/php}

{news category="news" detailpage="article" number="5" start=_$ARCHIVE_}

Why to do it in PHP... there's an attribute "showarchive" for the news tag which shows the expired news (set it to "true")... for pagination, try the user defined tag I posted in the documentation (see http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... fined_Tags).
