CMS Made Simple Forums

Beta2 that contains everything fixed, and adjusted since the Beta1 was released is now available for download.

Keep up the good work people.

Hope this is appropriate for this board...

I was testing 1.10-beta2 and noticed that the included News module (2.12) was doing something odd--the category objects passed to news templates always seem to have "depth" and "prevdepth" field values equal to 1, regardless of their associated cms_module_news_categories.hierarchy column values in the database.

I found the problem was an incorrect explode() parameter on line 77 of modules/News/lib/class.news_ops.php:

$depth= count(explode('\.', $row['hierarchy']));

That is, '\.' is passed instead of '.'. It seems that virtually the same problem was previously reported to the Bug Tracker(#5884), but that was when the get_categories() function was defined in News.module.php. So, I thought I'd post the beta2 bug here and add a comment to bug #5884 as this problem also exists in News 2.11.4 (CMSMS 1.9.4.3).

Let me know if you need any further information.

Hope this helps,
Fred P

thanks, fixed it.
