CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,
I am using News module 2.12.2 and on my main news page it displays the news summarys and a link to the pages, when you click on the link to the pages it gives me a 404 Not Found error. In the url it keeps the article url in it but just doesn't display the content. Does anyone know why this has just started happening?
Many thanks,
Lisa

Try http://docs.cmsmadesimple.org/troublesh ... -error-404

my details template is set to active. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Do you use pretty urls for this website? If so, make sure no '/news' or '/News' directory physically exists on the webserver.

You have an url to the website?

thanks, yes I can confirm that there isn't a news/News directory on the server. I think pretty urls are being used on the website, however how can i confirm this? apologise, i have taken over this site since the last developer disappeared. I can't see a module or anything about pretty urls but the urls seem good.

atiacomms.com

Try to disable pretty url and look again

Ok, i've removed that but still im recieving the 404 error on the news articles

Okay, so it isnt a rewrite problem.

Are you very sure your detailpage is present?

In page or template: {News detailpage='foo'}
and
check in the News module admin panel in the Options tab: "Default page to use for detail views"

ah ha! thank you, the default page wasn't selected in the Options tab!
Thank you so much for your help

Great!
