Where can I edit the news that is shown in the news menu box under the date?

I did it once before but cannot remember where?

Thanx
Kirsten

That would be News Management under the Management menu

[kirsten]

Okay I have looked and looked at the news management section I have news there but this is not what I want to change

I want to change the text that is on the web page in the news box under the date
if you click on previous news that gives you a page called news archive and this is what is showing on my news menu box

When I added this news it was 05.02.05 and I cannot remember how I did it...before I added this there was something saying no news at present (or something to that effect?)

Do you know where I change this bit?

Totally confused here

Change it under "messages."

[kirsten]

Thanx for the reply but I figured that out after trying all the options there

I'm sure I posted on this thread ???

I can't find how to edit the : "todays news stuff either"

I think it's the "news message body" but I can't find it anywhere

{if $news_message eq ""}
{$lng.txt_no_news_available}
{else}
<B>{$news_message.send_date|date_format:$config.Ap pearance.date_format}</B><BR>
{$news_message.body}
<BR><BR>
{if $usertype eq "C"}
<A href="news.php" class="SmallNote">{$lng.lbl_previous_news}</A>
{/if}

Anyone got an answer to this?

Other problem is that the news section dissappears if you log in.Is this normal
or a screw up by me ?

[Paul H]

And the answer to this is :

Make a new news message !

DOH

The news section still disappears if you log in -is this normal??

Look for the bit of code that says {if $login eq "" } and take that out.

[Paul H]

OK
In which template do I look for that code -I'll have a go at altering that.
Thanks
