Engage Software is pleased to announce that Engage: Publish 5.1 has been released for download on www.engagemodules.com. For a complete list of enhancements and bug fixes for the 5.1 release of Publish you can visit the release notes.

Engage: Publish 5.1 has a few bug fixes as well as a couple of major enhancements. One of the new enhancements is the ability to enable Article Comments to interact with the ActiveForums module from ActiveModules.com (currently supporting ActiveForums 3.7.8.27002). This enhancement was sponsored and tested by Audacious Inquiry.

Other enhancements include better clearing of the cached content when new items are added to Publish, Comment information is prepopulated for logged in users, and comments are now cached for articles minimizing the database load.

Bug fixes include issues revolving around the Import/Export of content, the ability to have more than one related category, permissions revolving around the printer friendly page and paging on the Custom Display module when a portal is not using DNN Friendly urls.

Engage: Publish is available for purchase on www.engagemodules.com, as well as SnowCovered and the DotNetNuke Marketplace. When purchasing Engage: Publish, or any of our other modules,  you are eligible for a year of free upgrades, to obtain the upgrades you must register on www.engagemodules.com and provide your reciept of purchase via email to dotnetnuke@engagemodules.com.

Engage: Publish is the premier content management system for DotNetNuke. Engage: Publish allows you to organize and display your content within DotNetNuke. Configurations options are limited only by your imagination. All content entered and managed through Publish uses our custom versioning and workflow process so you can rest assured that administrators have the ability to approve content before it shows up live on your production website. You also get the ability to rollback to any previous version of content through our expansive versioning system.

Chris, can you let us know more details about exactly how it interacts with Active Forums? Does AF manage the comments.. ratings? Are articles in Engage also published in the forums?

Rob, thanks for the question.

The integration with ActiveForums currently provides the ability to have Comments on an article go into a thread in the forum. If an article is configured for Comments and the parent category has a default forum defined, when the first comment is added to the article a new thread is created in that predefined forum.

The subject of the thread is titled with the name of the article, the text of the original post is the description/abstract of the article, and then a link is inserted to the actual article. The comment that was added by a user then becomes a reply to this original post.

This way only articles that have comments get created in the forum, not every article entered on the site.

From there, anytime someone wants to comment on an article it takes them directly to the thread in the forum, to which they can read other comments and reply.

The ratings for articles are still held within Engage: Publish's default ratings, not within AF.

Does that help?
