v3 Articles

Has anyone installed the v3 Articles mod before and if so how did it work out for you?

I did install it, used it a little, and then once I upgraded to 3.0.5, I didn't bother reinstalling the hack. I just made a new forum for articles, increased the word count that was allowed and it was more or less the same thing :)

I use it. Works well for me b/c it organizes and keeps seperate articles from forums.

I think it's just a personal preference.

I thought about using it and didnt for 2 reasons.

1. I prefer to have some straight HTML pages for articles - I believe the contrast between html pages and vb pages is helpful with search engines;

2. I prefer to have straight HTML pages for articles because I have a little more control over the look and feel of the html;

3. If I wanted the pages to look and feel like vB then I could use the CMPS pages and make custom pages.

I had installed it previously but opted not to with 3.05 for most of the same reasons.:)

I was thinking of using it. My new site is going to have an articles system, and I want it to tie into vbulletin. There's one that is being used by www.iamnotageek.com that I like, but it's customized and the guy isn't going to release it.

vbulletin needs a good articles system in place.

I use it but am thinking of dropping it... it hasn't really had the desired effect for me...:(

There is a new Articles mod at: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=74189

This has potential. :)

Oooh nice... thanks for the link.

im impressed - cause cinq is rewriting another hack that I love - it should be awsome!

Mine doesn't get that much use. So I'm leaving it.
