"News" not creating pages

Post by johnsont »

I just added a "news" section to one of my sites, using {news number="4"}. It works fine on the page (http://www.hmmsvt.com/), but when you click to "Read More" you get a "Not Found" error. It seems the CMS isn't generating the news pages.

I think it might be the lack of a details page (see attached), but I can't figure out how to set the page. I have a page called News that I'd like to use, but I can't find where to set it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Tessa

Thank you, Rolf! This was it!

1. Check the detailpage parameter in the News tag(s) {News detailpage='foo'}. Page alias "foo" must be present.

Weird because I don't have that in any of my other sites and they all work. But when I added it here - problem solved!

Thanks,
Tessa
