I have a question about how you have been using UBBNews. I've had a problem with the way it summarizes the topic... If the character limit comes in the middle of a link in the story, you get a broken link. And if you have a photo or graphic near the top of the story, it also appears in the summary, or a broken link appears if the character limit cuts it off.

Have you customized it to prevent broken links or unwanted photos in the summary?

Thanks!

Greg

no, we've only used the same code available here. we just write the stuff that will appear considering whether or not it will get broken in ubbnews. I edit the message to fix it if it does get a broken link/image/ etc smile
