Need help with news display
When I look at my website on the net, my news data wont show on my template news block when using a user defined tag as the page content. It shows up on any other pages where I just use HTML in the page content. Any ideas why this is happening?
Re: Need help with news display
More info please...
Ver.?
what is in the UDT and why not use Global Content Block?
Do you have a link to the page?

Re: Need help with news display
Ver 1.0.2
My UDT is this:
{cms_module module="news" summarytemplate="title.tpl"}
I tried useing a Global Content Block and here is the Error I get:
string(59) "Smarty error: unable to read resource: "globalcontent:News""
The Global Content Block for my Calendar works though.

The news block works ok on pages where I am not using UDT as the page content.
Any ideas why I am getting this error for my news block on my template when I try to used the UDT code above for the content of a page?

Any ideas why I am getting this error for my news block on my template when I try to used the UDT code above for the content of a page?
string(59) "Smarty error: unable to read resource: "globalcontent:News""
I hope this is enough information. Let me know if it is not.

Re: Need help with news display
I found if I take this line of code out of my UDT that the news block will work but then database I am trying to select for data won't work.
Any idea how to get around this?

Re: Need help with news display
Everything works good if I put my table from my data database to the cms database. I don't want to do this though. Is there a way to access another database witout it messing up the rest of the cms database info for the rest of the template?
