The next release of Pro_News - version 2.3 - is out for what may well be its final test before release.

As well as all the planned features, a number of new tweaks and improvements have be added to improve the overall usability of Pro_News. Things Admins will like, e.g. if there are no articles to display in a Section/Category it will now tell you, as Admin, which Section and which Category. And you can go directly to any Section or Category from the Admin > Pro_News > Category screen without having to redisplay from the Home or Pro_News page. Plus many others.

Bigger enhancements are correctly sized mini "icon" displays in Headlines, support for default images per Section to avoid the blank "No image" displays, new table-free Headline templates for Headlines - which should improve the display particularly for those CSS-challenged browsers like IE.

There will be a couple of minor upgrade steps needed for those of you using Headlines to generate the new icon images, but it had to be changed/improved.
