Forgive me... I am new to this... I just setup CMPS successfully and added the correct forum ID etc to display the news section to the portal. My problem is.. I would like the news 'posts' to display the 'content' of the news post not just the title, username and date... I basically want the news to display like the ones ont eh front of vbadvanced.com. I am not a programmer by any stretch so be blunt with an explaination. :) Thanks so much for any help in advanced.

Admin CP => Import & Maintenance => Update Counters => Rebuild Thread Information

Try running that option and see if it takes care of the problem.

OK.. I tried that and nothing changed. Here's the link.

If you notice I just shows the Title, user who posted and time. I want it to display the tile, the actual post (or news for that matter) time etc. Basically just like the front of vbadvanced.com... Thanks for any help!

Set your 'News Posts Maximum' to a number other than 0. I know it says 0 will display all, but there's currently a bug where that actually disables the news.
