News Articles missing but not?

XOOPS Version: 2.0.13.2
Module Name/Version: News 1.1
PHP Version: 4.3.11
MySQL Version: 4.1.21-standard
Web Server Software (Apache/IIS/Other): Apache
Operating System: Linux

A full description of the issue:

We had to move our XOOPS site to a new server and we seem to be almost there! However one glitch remains which I hope someone can assist with.

This is the site: CMBA

Click on any of the news articles in the Recent News block and you are taken to a page, the theme is there but the article is missing.

On checking Edit News all data appears to have copied over correctly and is shown in the right spots... so why doesn't it display on the site?

If further information is needed please let me know. :)

Do anaonymous users have permission to 'read' all the news blocks? Just an idea.

lol thanks Jenclaus, yes Anonymous users are ticked to read all news blocks.. I wish it was that easy :(

If you click on the NEWS button it takes you to the summary page and you can read the title and also short summary of each news article.

But click on read more and the article isn't there! When you look at the article in edit News mode, the full article is there - so why isn't it picking it up?

SO FRUSTRATING!

I know...was just fishing - i did check it out...
I don't know what else to check... Not off the top of my head anyway...did you try any of the suggestions on the Blank Page FAQ? (even though it's not a full blank page)
Do you get anything with PHP debug on? Smarty debug?

A couple things you can try (if you haven't already):

1. Update the news module and the system module.

2. When you click on Edit and see the article, do you click Post or just change pages? Try clicking on Post and see what happens.

3. De-activate (DO NOT UNINSTALL) the module and activate it again.

Perhaps one of these suggestions will be of help

Hi there. These are all great suggestions - 1 and 2 I had already tried so I gave 3 a go and nothing, then updated both modules again and still nothing.

I have used the PHP, Smarty and SQL debug options and everything looks sweet!

The only other thing I forgot to mention is that the site is still waiting for redelegation to occur. I am hoping when it happens that it will fix itself up, but I my doubts as if I can read the news summarys then I can't see why the full articles can't be read either.

Any more suggestions?

Upgrade to News 1.44?? Other than that, I'm fresh out of suggestions.

Good luck

Thanks MSDana. I have now upgraded to News 1.44 as suggested but we still can't read the full news article.

I noticed a NEWS2 module so am uploading that now and if all goes well, I will manually move the articles over to the News2 module and ditch News altogether. Here's hoping!
