[SOLVED] RSS Links are Incorrect

I just noticed the RSS feed on my site is incorrect. All the links point to URLs that do not exist, which obviously is a problem. ATM they all point at
http://www.mysite.com/news/XX/[b]15[/b]/... when they really should be pointing to
http://www.mysite.com/news/XX/[b]69[/b]/...
So it seems the XX in the links is the news item's UID but what is that second number and how can I change it to 69 instead of 15???

did you look at news module options? (last setting on that page).

I'm looking at the options but do not see any reference to the number "15".
Is there something particular I should be examining?
I'm using trusty str_replace to fix the links but have to think this isn't normal behavior.

"15" is the ID of the default page in sample content, so that's where that number is coming from...
domain.tld/index.php?mact=News,cntnt01,detail,0&cntnt01articleid=1&cntnt01returnid=15
the news setting i was referring to is: "The id or page alias of the landing page for news articles from the rss feed:"
what is the ID of your default (or 'home') page?
are the rss links still wrong if you clear cmsms cache and then turn off pretty urls/mod_rewrite rules?
are you using any detailpage params in news module tags?

Well there you have it. I updated the ID in the options and that seems to do the job.
Thanks for the help!
