If I disable 'News' page content that comes by default with cms installation News stop working.
Clicking on any news opens page:
cmsmadesimple/index.php?mact=News,cntnt01,detail,0&cntnt01articleid=2&cntnt01origid=39&cntnt01returnid=39
...that does not exist.
I do not see any association between 'News' page and news display....
I made test changing name of 'news' and it works when is active, stop working when disabled....
I think this is some bug.

gosforth,
I dont get the point completely. Waht exactly happens, and on what version of CMSMS and what version on NEWS.
Are you disabling NEWS, or the content-page and is the content-page type Content or type News.
Please clarify a little more.....

Hi,
I use latest release; 1.2.2 with all modules that comes with default installation. So, I did enter content->pages then in each content that comes by default I disabled in options pane 'active' and 'show in menu'.
I created new default page (new 'home').
All works (almost, but later about that) but if I go to page (example content that comes with default installation) called 'News' (the one that starts with words 'Most web sites have a section for the latest news...' and when I uncheck in options pane 'active' and 'show in menu' for this page then News stop working. I mean problem comes when I click on 'more' link in each news.
As I said I do not see any connection between 'News' content and News. Especially that clicking 'more' should take me to the body of news.
I noticed also bug when setting new default page. I renamed old 'home' (name 'Home' that comes by default) to home_old, I created new one called 'home', I set new home as 'default' but what I had in 'You are here' (left top corner') was 'You are here: Home_old'.
Sure clicking on that did cause error because old home (called 'home_old') was disabled.
Yes, I did clear cache and it did not help. What helped was setting default another page then setting new home again default page. This is bug.
Another thing that does not work is WYSIWYG editor. If i put link in 'Link URL' and click 'update' then submit or apply... lik disappear. I have to enter link manualy swithing off wyiswg. Another bug.

news articles in default install have detailpage param (detailpage='news') with news page (news are dispaly in THIS page); if you disabled this page (no active) is same that not exist ..... ergo you have a error

This is not bug. In THIS template there is "hardcoded" Home aliases:
{breadcrumbs starttext='You are here' root='Home' delimiter='»'}
This install (default page+template+css) are
examples
