A GOOD and versatile news manager needed

[mikeh]

Found the issue. With Fancy URLs on the categories weren't working. Without Fancy URLs they were working fine. Then I saw the issue was in the .htaccess file. There was no rule for categories. I just added this line to the rewrite rules area

RewriteRule ^photo-blog/category/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=photo-blog&category=$1 [L]

now it all works fine.

Great Job. Just trying to add an image through custom_fields plugin. But it seems custom fields is visible only for pages and not for this news manager plugin since I can't see it there.

Thanks, glad you figured it out.
If you are using an already modified News Manager plugin, you should be able to grab the necessary functions with ease. I tried to follow the same file and function structure. I hope the RSS importer will be of use for some people.. It helps my clients a lot.
