Is there any simple way I can insert older news into the Company News? We have a legacy News Release system that i want to replace with the SupportSuite news system. In order to do this, i need to place all the old news items from our legacy system into the SupportSuite database.
The problem with this is, i have to generate a php timestamp that is correct for the news release date, and then manually update the swnews.dateline field for that news article. THEN I have to change the swnews.newsid to be lower number then current news (so it shows up in order on the news page). Finially i have to change swnewsdata.newsid to reflect the change i made to swnews.newsid.
Short of the long is, I would really like to be able to edit the post date (in a simpler way than the way described above) of a news item, along with it being changed in the main newspage display order. |
