Hi to all, it has been some time since I have used Xoops (so long it appears a few hundred posts also left the Xoops site LOL) but I want to create a new personal (family) website. It appears that not all modules in the repository are compatible. I have spent quite some time today downloading modules and installing them just to have to uninstal and delete them to try another.

I would love to get the Xoops News module to work but alas it does not.

I get the error:
Error : Smarty error: [in db:news_block_top.html line 915]: syntax error: unidentified token '#039;counter'' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 1410).

I have replied to another post with a similar problem but it was a topic from a while ago and i'm afraid that it may be a dead end.

The AMS and TadGallery modules appears to work fine but I also need News. I am also finding it hard to get a video and music module to work. It seemed to be easier then this a few years ago.

Is there a list of modules that are 100% compatible with Xoops 2.5x? Or, am I missing something?

Cheers,
Marty.
