CMS Made Simple Forums

I am developing a 3 col site with the middle column being the main content carrier, and with the right hand column being the news column.

If i write an article, send it, and then click on 'more' in the column, the full article appears in the main content column as i wanted it to BUT underneath the existing content instead of being on a fresh new page.

How do I get over this please? I can't find any option I can change.

Thanks

Have you created a specific page for displaying detailed news?

Thanks Nullig

Oh, no I haven't!

I have just tried to do it by adding a page with the 'Content type' being News.

The message I am getting is that the News content type has been removed and that I should place {news} tags with appropriate parameters into my page template or into my page content to replace this functionality.

Do I just put the {news} tag under the {content} tag in the appropriate part of the template?

Create a page called "News".
In the content area of the page, just put the {news} tag.
On the Options tab, uncheck the "Show in Menu", if you don't want it to appear in your menu.
Make the page alias "news".

In your template, where you call the news module in your sidebar, use this:
