ok im in the process of learning how to convert a template.

Basically I have this template

http://www.free-css-templates.com/demo/LightBiz2/

At the moment ive got the css in there and ive got this code in the html which is working and pulling up the news summary content

Code: Select all

<div id="rightside">

			<h2>Latest <span class="green">News</span></h2>
			
			{cms_module module="news"}
				
		</div>

now the problem is the date, postedby and text are all the same formatting, I'm aware of a definition in the style sheet called "date" this contains the formating for date and is what i need but how do i tell CMSMS to use this formating for displaying news dates. My ZX81 of a brain is having trouble understanding where the formating is defined in the template if all thats there is {cms_module module="news"} arrrghghhh!!!!

If someone can just explain this one thing to me then I'm certain I will be able to figure out a lot of the other stuff on my own. Plleeasseee help I am trying honestly this is my fird day near XHTML or CSS so at least I'm having a go.

thanks guys!!!

You should have the "Module: News" stylesheet associated with your template. Within it, look for the:

Code: Select all

.NewsSummaryPostdate {
  font-size: 90%;
  font-weight: bold;
 }

where you can change the font attributes for the date field.

Cheers 'ears,

It worked and now I'm able to change the fonts. Everythings all starting to make sense.
