CMS Made Simple Forums

I installed a new template (grass stains) and now my news is gone.

cmsms v 1.2.1

Going back to the original template did not fix the problem. The news articles are still there, they just do not show up on the pages.

provide your template code please

Not sure what the template code is, but I am guessing it is the code from the xml file.

{cms_module module='menumanager' template='GrassStains : theme : CSSmenuhoriz1'  }
 

 
{content block='content2title' oneline='true'}
{content block='content2'}
     

        {title}
        {content}

SORT OF SOLVED. AFTER CAREFUL EXAMINATION I REALIZED IT IS NOT A SITE PROBLEM, BUT RATHER A TEMPLATE ISSUE AND SO THAT IS SOMETHING I SHOULD TRY AND WORK OUT ON MY OWN. OF COURSE IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO FILL ME IN ON WHY THE CODE I PASTED IN THE PREVIOUS POST IS NOT SHOWING NEWS, I WOULD BE GRATEFUL. THANK YOU.

That template is set up to have a side bar that will accept anything inserted in the content edit box called here, not hard coding the news tag in this space is meant to afford more flexibility to a template...

   
  {content block='content2title' oneline='true'}
  {content block='content2'}
     

When editing a page you will see edit box called, Content2:  like the one above it called Content:...

If you want to have news on every page you can put the news tag call in the template and still add other info in the Content2 box...

   
  {content block='content2title' oneline='true'}
  {content block='content2'}
  {news}
     

Thank you very much. I had given up on my preferred template, but your post was perfect, intuitive, and very much appreciated. Thank you.
