Paths to Articles (News Manager) Can't Post
Hi,

I'm using News Manager and have put the summary links on my home page via ssi, all fine.

The problem is when you click on the links to go to the main Article the path is wrong!

Here is a link - http://www.tribeck.org/

Basically the path of the links are pointing to http://www.tribeck.org/news_3.html

When they should be pointing to - http://www.tribeck.org/cm/publish/news_3.html

Basically how do I change the links so they point to the correct paths/pages?

Help appreciated

cheers - Kris

I've tried changing the path within setup, but that then overwrites the index page?

HELP.

thanks

Hi Kris,

Thanks for posting!

I think the problem here is being caused by relative URLs which don't work when accessed from a different location than where the main News Manager index is published. To fix this, you'll want to open up your "_index.html" template file and look for this line of code:

Code
<a href="$url$">

Try changing this so that the full path to the file is specified:

Code
<a href="http://www.yoursite.com/path/to/newsmanager/publish/$url$">

Give this a try and let us know if you need anything else. Smile
