The stories component have been updated so that users will be able to use the built-in WYSIWYG editor from the mambo core instead of the troublesome custom editor. This means more stability and cross-browser compatibility.
Plus, enhanced feature like picture linking and direct copy-paste functionality from a word processor like MS Word.
P/S: the menu section has been updated to show the latest stories in the module. This is dynamically done.

Minor Update - 11/10/2005
There were some glitches in the profile component which is linked to the global register not showing properly in the variables. I have detected 2 users suffering from this issue. A quick fix has been added to prevent further error.
Note these are a few system fix/updates :-
1) The Un-Register component has been updated to remove Private Messages as well as shoutbox msg (if any). It now cleans the profile section, content, user tables, thumbnail pictures and session variables after a user has exited from the system.
2) The Fullview Profile section has been moved to a new php file. This greatly reduce the load on the backend component because the main profile file is rendered less frequently and shrinking the file to a smaller and more managable chunks.
3) A small new security validation mechanism for the user profile age. This prevents users from entering the wrong info into the database and protects data contamination.
4) A validation mechanism for the biography section to prevent account misuse.
