Barebones PHP news script?

[fs5]

Something simple that allows updating, time stamp, and comments. If I can avoid SQL I would like that too.

Greymatter is awsome

Greymatter is awesome but it's no longer supported and it's not really a news script. What exactly is a news script? Something like a blog or something like Techbargains?

Learn to use PHP with MySQL and you can do any type of news script you like 😛 Otherwise you could use a text file as a database...

Grey Matter is the exact opposite of barebones. I wrote a very simple blog thing in php/mysql, you could probably hack out the ability to reply pretty easily.

I'd think that'd be pretty hard to do.

Not hard all, actually. Just more annoying to code, and slower.

I checked out greymatter and you're right, the exact opposite of barebones but it seems to do the job.
I'll try your script BingBongWongFooey, thanks.

No prob. Yeah grey matter is nice, it isn't all that bare bones, but it's been around a while and is probably the least pain in the ass to use.
