Plug Commenters with Cutenews

Connect to your FTP server and go to the directory where you have cutenews installed. Go to inc > functions.inc.php. Find the last line at the end of the file and right before the closing ?> add this code:

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//// Function: Lists all commenters with mail or url when available
function list_commenters($news, $linebreak, $separator) {
$alle_comments = file("cutenews/data/comments.txt");
$i=0;
foreach($alle_comments as $comments_line)
{
$comments_line = trim($comments_line);
$comments_line_arr = explode("|>|", $comments_line);
if($news == $comments_line_arr[0])
{
$individual_comment = explode("||", $comments_line_arr[1]);
foreach ($individual_comment as $single_comment)
{
$single_comment_arr = explode("|", $single_comment);
if (($single_comment_arr[0] != "") && (!stristr($output, $single_comment_arr
[1])))
{
$i++;
if($single_comment_arr[2] != "none")
{
if( preg_match("/^[\.A-z0-9_\-]+[@][A-z0-9_\-]+([.][A-z0-9_\-]+)+[A-z]{1,4}
$/", $single_comment_arr[2])){ $url_target = "";$mail_or_url = "mailto:"; }
else
{
$url_target = "target=\"_blank\"";
$mail_or_url = "";
if(substr($single_comment_arr[2],0,3) == "www") $mail_or_url = "http://";
}
$output .= "<a $url_target href=\"$mail_or_url".stripslashes
($single_comment_arr[2])."\">".stripslashes($single_comment_arr
[1])."</a>".$separator;
}
else $output .= $single_comment_arr[1].$separator;
if (fmod($i, $linebreak)==0) $output .= "<br />";
}
}

}
}
if (fmod($i, $linebreak)=="0") $output = substr($output, 0, -(strlen
($separator)+6));
else $output = substr($output, 0, -strlen($separator));
return $output;
}

Now open up shows.inc.php and find this:

$output = str_replace("{title}", $news_arr[2], $template_full);

Add this just below it:

preg_replace("#\[commenters-header\](.*?)\[/commenters-
header\]#i", "", $output);

Then in the same shows.inc.php file find the following code:

$output = $template_active;

Add this code below it:

if(CountComments($news_arr[0], $archive) > 0){
$output = str_replace('[commenters-header]', '', $output);
$output = str_replace('[/commenters-header]', '', $output);
$output = preg_replace("#\{commenters:(.*):(.*)\}#ie", "list_commenters
('".$news_arr[0]."', '\\1', '\\2')", $output);
}
else $output = preg_replace("#\[commenters-header\](.*?)\[/commenters-
header\]#i", "", $output);

Now log into your Cutenews admin panel and go to Options > Edit Templates place the code below in your active news and full story templates where you want to plug your commenters:

[commenters-header]{commenters:#: - }[/commenters-header]

Replace # with the number of commenters per row you want to display. Save your changes and that's it your commenters should be plugged!
