Hi all,

I´m trying to create a custom block in which I´ll show Recent News functionality within a custom layout. The issue is that if I include something like:

<ul>
<{foreach item=news from=$block.stories}>
<li><a href="<{$xoops_url}>/modules/news/article.php?storyid=<{$news.id}>"><{$news.title}></a> (<{$news.date}>)</li>
<{/foreach}>
</ul>

in the content area of the custom block, it is not interpreted and is shown as text.

Another path to achieve the same result would be to edit the Recent News template, but it seems far too complex.

I´ll appreciate any input on this.
thanks!
