I'm using news 1.1,
1)in "post/edit news" is there any way find a news story's ID so it can be edited without having to dive into the database.

2)is there any way to increase "last 10 articles" to say 20 at a view?

I'll get this working yet!

I'd upgrade to News 1.2.1 instead of modifying 1.1

Thanks, I found 1.2.1. The instructions showed there should be 11 templates, I've only got 8, 3 have the yellow line and when I try to generate, it shows "Selected file does not exist)". I've tried browsing for the html file in the news > templates dir and uploading, - message "Template file news_by_topic.html does not need to be installed (PHP files using this template file does not exist)"
The module, however, seems to be running ok and showing all stories so far.
Wot now Gandalf? Is it ok without the template files.

Help!! No news stories are appearing when selected from the drop down menu, the stories are still there, I can read and edit them in admin>news>edit. What's happened?

I followed the "readme" and actually deleted all files and regenerated them except for the 3 which wouldn't (see previous post). The missing ones exist in the news>templates folder but won't regenerate.

Sorted it by dumping "stories" and "topics" from the db, removing news module completely, re-installing it and writing backup sql files to the db. I now have all 11 templates working.
