Headlines Module Question

I have searched through many topics in the forum but still have been unable to figure this out. I have several XOOPS sites that I want to have news included from my main XOOPS site. Just like the XOOPS news is rendered in the Headlines module. From what I have read, all you have to do is set up a headline entry pointing to the sites (the site hosting the news) backend.php file. Is that correct? I get the XOOPS site news fine but can't get the news from my site.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Actually, I think I got it worked out. It must be a problem with my test environment on ISS. Tested it on UNIX and it worked fine. Go figure.

Do have one more question that is perplexing me... I am trying to edit the format of the Headline's block on my front page. Although I edit the template (xoopsheadline_block_rss.html) and rebuild the module, nothing changes. Am I missing something?

Do you have the "Update module template .html files from themes/your theme/templates directory?" marked as YES in the System Admin general settings preferences?

I'm pretty sure you need to mark that yes, reload the pages and then remark it no.

Thanks... that did it. Been messing around with this stuff for so long I overlook the simple things. Thanks for the reality check!
