Problems with News Module not displaying

Genghis1227 · Post by **Genghis1227** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 8:43 am

I'm having problems displaying the news module. I am using the tags to display it {cms_module module="News"} but even the default installation does not display the news module properly. I even upgraded the news module through the admin plugin section and edited permissions to allow the admin to the news module but yet nothing shows up on the front page. Any help would be great. I would like to get this up and running soon! Thanks!

Is this a new install? Or an upgraded one? I just thought of a bug with new installs that could be giving you a problem. Not sure if it's an upgrade, though.

I've got this problem with a brand new install too.

Uninstall News and reinstall it. It will be fixed in the final 0.7.3 release.

Hasn't solved the problem

I found it though! The problem I'm having is that the htmlarea is converting:

{cms_module module="News"}

to

{cms_module module="News"}

Removing the quotation marks or changing the " back to " in 'source view' solved the problem for me.

Argh! I'm not sure why HTMLArea started doing that. Guess I need to dig into it.

I fixed the " problem in svn. It will be in 0.7.3 due tonight.
