Phpbb Primetime

Content Module

The content module is a versatile article system for phpbb primetime that allows you to create different content types from the administrative control panel (eg News, articles, or whatever). It is fully customizable from the acp. Each content type is created as a module mode and permissions can be set for each content type. And this is were the controversy begins. Since the content types are dynamically created, setting the language variable for the permission masks for each content type must be dynamic and so, I use a database query in a language file, which phpbb will not approve of. I could get rid of the permissions to validate this mod.
