I use Ventrian News Articles for our journal. We have used the latest software fix: https://github.com/ventrian/News-Articles and we installed the latest DNN security patch.

On the surface it looks good without logging in, but in the admin section in the module, it isn't functional anymore! The interface is faulty now and I have tried to add a category and that doesn't work because the SAVE button isn't visible anymore. 

If anyone has any suggestions, I would be thrilled to hear about how to fix that part of the software. It's unfortunate that it isn't supported or maintained anymore.

The console log indicates:

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://journal.nafo.int/dnn/Volumes/Articles/ctl/EditCategory/mid/420' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure stylesheet 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

Other issues:

1. 1. he label's <code>for</code> attribute doesn't match any element <code>id</code>. This might prevent the browser from correctly autofilling the form and accessibility tools from working correctly.

      To fix this issue, make sure the label's <code>for</code> attribute references the correct <code>id</code> of a form field.

   Mixed content: load all resources via HTTPS to improve the security of your site

   1. Even though the initial HTML page is loaded over a secure HTTPS connection, some resources like images, stylesheets or scripts are being accessed over an insecure HTTP connection. Usage of insecure resources is restricted to strengthen the security of your entire site.

      To resolve this issue, load all resources over a secure HTTPS connection.

   No label associated with a form field

   1. A <code><label></code> isn't associated with a form field.

      To fix this issue, nest the <code><input></code> in the <code><label></code> or provide a <code>for</code> attribute on the <code><label></code> that matches a form field <code>id</code>.

Hi - try the News-Articles module that was forked from the Ventrian code by 40fingers

https://github.com/40fingers/News-Articles

We use it successfully for various clients

Actually, the orginal repo should be that same as our Repo.
BTW we are no longer actively supporting the module as we don't use the module any more for our clients.
We use Open Content for our clients now for News, but we use custom templates
