can't change news module templates

[antuanjoseff]

hi,

when I change any of the new module templates (Summary template or the Detail template), no errors are shown but changes are never applied. I mean templates are changed but the page containing the news remain without changes.

Can anyone help me? I am getting crasier

clear your server cache, under "Site Settings"

I have already done so.
No changes apply

hi,

Don't edit the template files - they are just the defaults loaded when the module is installed

Log on to admin as an admin user & edit the templates via Content/News and the Detail and Summary tabs

Hope this helps -

you can make your own template and call them when you set the tag...
from News Help...
# (optional) summarytemplate="sometemplate.tpl" - Use a separate template for displaying the article summary. It have to live in modules/News/templates.
# (optional) detailtemplate="sometemplate.tpl" - Use a separate template for displaying the article detail. It have to live in modules/News/templates.
