Guys a bit of advice here please.......
At the moment we are using three forums for news which we harmonise into IP.Content blocks on our portal as you can see here:

If we wanted to scrap the new forums and use regular forums can we use Promote to Article to show an item as news on the Portal?
I can't find any decent overview of how the 'promote to article' system works, with respect to:
- What happens to the original post on forum, is it retained?
- Comments made to the article - are they fed back to the original thread?
- Is there any special block control needed?
- Is the article posted in it's entirety to the portal, or can it be cut down and trimmed using the same code as for thread posts?
- Are attached images or inline images brought out into the article?
Any tips at all from those that use the system would be appreciated.
Cheers
