RE: [opencms-dev] Using the news module with version 5.0<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=161293818-30102002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hi
Joe,</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=161293818-30102002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>If
you plan to us JSP's then in my opinion you should use v.5.0 . The news module
does work with v.5.0, but when I set this up I executed the SQL statements to
update the database / create tables "manually" (i.e. don't rely on the
automated setup routine) - the scripts are in the news module zip file - and
then afterwards import the news module from the Administration View of
opencms.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=161293818-30102002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I
would add though (and again in my experience and for my purposes) that I have
since disposed of the news module. Whilst the concept is good it is
functionally inadequate from the perspective of the user e.g. a news item can
only appear in 1 channel / most of the time users had to create a "page" and
news item (two separate functions). As an alternative I use JSP template of
which I can provide details if you wish.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

[opencms-dev] Using the news module with version 5.0<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=680251818-30102002>Can someone help
me understand the best version to use? I'll need the
functionality of the news module and possibly JSPs. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=680251818-30102002>I succesfully
installed the latest version 5.0 beta, but couldn't get the news module nor
the opencms website demo functioning. I downgraded to version 4.6 and
both items are installed and working now. Should the news module work
automatically with the 5.0 release? If not, is there a way to make it
work?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
