Trouble with the News Module!?

Post by stoney_kun »

Hi All,

I am very new to CMSms and so far am quite impressed with the tool :) For some strange reason my News Module has stopped working. When I click "more" it does not click through to the news item. I just recently deleted the default content pages that comes with a fresh installation. Could this of had something to do with it? I tried reinstalling the News Module and this has not helped.

Please help ???

CMSms ver 1.2.3 "Black Rock"
PHP ver 5.2.x
MySQL ver 5.0.16
News ver 2.6

What does your calling of the News module look like?

{news ......}

Try creating a page, give it a name, on the options-tab uncheck "show in menu" and call news with { newsdetailpage="alias-of-the-created-page"}

I am calling the news module with the below tag:
{cms_module module='news'}

Are you saying I need to create a page and place {newsdetailpage="alias-of-the-created-page"} inside and CMSms will know to link to this page for news detail?

I will try this a little later when I get back from soccer :)

Okay I have resolved the problem :) It turns out my logic was a little off. Let me explain... I must have been a little sloppy. Basically, now I have the {news} module being called in the page's content rather than the template.

Thanks for your help RonnyK
