what news system is used on this site? I think it looks really cool with the profile of the news poster over the news (when you read the story) I have tried to make that feature for newspro but I never got it to work.

Yes, Coranto is very flexible. I am sure it could be combined with newspro in some way if that's what you are trying to accomplish.

I think that's a customization that Afterlab made....but I am sure it's easy enough to duplicate if that's something you want.

I have always looked for a hack for that but I have never found one. Is Coranto better than newspro? maybe I'll change. And is there a search feature like in newspro?

When I logged in I thought I saw a search feature, but I have used both Newspro and Coranto, and I like Coranto much better. The main reason is because the interface is much easier to use, and the presentation of news is better and more customizable.

I was talking about a searh feature that could be used by visitors so they could search through the news archives.

Yeah with newspro its really hard to customize the news presentation, you have to edit 3-4 files just to make it look right

Do you have the link to the page where you can download coranto?
