CMS Made Simple Forums

Dear forum,

I know that the feature of the news module that allows frontend users to submit news articles (action='fesubmit') is deprecated for some time now. Yet, it still used to work on until CMSMS 1.12 - now, after the upgrade to 2.0.1.1, it seems to be broken in my installation.

For testing, I created a new News::Frontend template named "test" (which is filled with some default countent) and then used This doesn't produce an error, but it also doesn't show anything - it's as if the {news} tag wasn't there.

I am just wondering: is the fesubmit feature still supposed to work in CMSMS 2.0 or is it finally broken?

I now also tested the same line as above with an almost empty News::Frontend template (except for a short message). It didn't print the message.

P.S. The other features of the news module (e.g. upcominglist) are working just fine.

P.P.S. If you have an idea in which php file(s) the problem is likely to occur that would also help.
