Hi, I have been searching all kinds of options in the news module and cant seem to find how to make the news apear like this in my index page:

http://www.hardwarecult.com/XOOPS/XOOPS22/modules/news/

Instead of this:

http://www.hardwarecult.com/XOOPS/XOOPS22/

So my portal's news look like this:

http://www.selosdije.com/

Is this some kind of trick in which you put the news module's index as the main index?...

Nevermind, it is xD... oh well

Ok, you can make it so your main page shows the news like your first example. To do that goto Admin > Preferences > System > General Settings. From there on the fifth line you'll see Module for your start page. Change that from None to News and click Ok at the bottom of the page.

You can also keep the main page the way it is and add a News block (Recent news) to the main page like you have in your second example. The reason your news is split is because it looks like you told the block to be center/left and center/right. Change that block to be center/center and it will look like the first example.

Hope this helps

Hi, I have News module 1.4 and tried to do what you said: I have created a block (Recent News) but it wont show at my index page. I've selected it to show in "All Frontside Pages". What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: FIXED. My problem was firstly that I had given permissions to all webmasters, but didnt gave viewing permissions to everyone. Secondly, I didnt know I had to select the topics I needed to use when installing the new "Recent News" block.
