Hello, I recently upgraded a cmsms 1.8.2 site to 1.9.4.2 and I understand that it is now possible to use pretty urls for the news module. And to configure a news article url to anything.
I am having trouble finding the documentation on how to do this, could someone please point me in the right direction?

You can fill in the URL field when adding or editing an article

For some reason when I the url field, the article shows up on my site's homepage (default) rather than the news index page.
The link does use the url I specified, but it shows up in the wrong template

There's a preference in the news module that indicate which page (and therefore which page template) will be used for the detail view when using custom urls.

Hi calguy1000
Is it possible to have different page template for different categorys when using custom urls?
Is it possible to use the detailpage parameter provided on the news tag?
I tryed this and it didn't work
It would be very useful to be able to use a different page view for different catogorys rather than just one default detail page template for all categorys.
Any chance of this being added in the future?
