CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi All,

New with CMS Made Simple... new with cms overall... tried drupal, ugh that thing was complex.

So, my first attempt with CMS Made Simple.  Got it installed ok, now I'm customizing a theme.

I started with the 'Red Earth' them from http://freeoscommerce.com/free-template ... plate-003/

When I had the default theme on, I had an example of several news module posts.  But I guess this theme doesn't have that on it, though there is a space for it on the left side (see my site at: http://koryodo.sure-start.com ).

What do I need to do to put the news in place?  I'm guessing you will need to see the current template to tell me what to do, it is below.

Thanks,  Chris

I'm guessing you want the news to appear below the subnav menu on the left side.

Try this - replace with
That should get you started.

Oh, very cool, and works

Thank you, I'm learning...
