Hello st99

Welcome at the CMSMS forum.
Question, what happens if you change the pretty url settings in the config.php to hierarchy false?

Can you please put a copy of your System Information here?

And a copy of the {news} please.

Regards, Rolf

Some things were fixed, they had to do with the pretty/ugly urls. In 1.8.1 this was fixed IIRC. What version are you running.

Could you check your call to the {news} then. It could be that you have set this to point to a page, that doesnt exist. I mean in terms of the {news detailpage="the-pages-alias"}

It was actually not working from when I installed the news module (before the clean urls) I applied the clean urls to see if it was a possible fix.

Surely the page exists and is being called properly because the content is showing?

Thanks

OK, and you have a page with the alias "news" that is active?

Thanks for your help, I was being very amature, I remembered I renamed the page to news-update and not news. Im a fool.

Thanks for your patience  :)
