Released New Article Notifications in Chat 2.0.0

Want to give thanks to @apathy , who was the original maker of this addon. And of course @bob and @Siropu.​

This has been tested on 2.3.7. But should work on older versions.

Overview​

This add-on integrates XenAddons AMS (Article Management System) with Siropu Chat to automatically post notifications in a chat room whenever new AMS articles are published.
It’s ideal for communities that want chat users to stay updated in real-time about new articles.
