Trying to get the News Display Module to display something but I have had no luck.  I installed it and got it positioned fine.  I then created an article and used the below code.  I originally had a problem with TinyMCE wrapping my SPAN tags in <P> tags.  I ended up having to do a bit of hacking in TinyMCE but eventaully I got that to put just the below text in there but still no image on the page!  wth.  there is something I am missing here.

I also made sure that I listed the article number under the properties of the "Shape 5 News Display", "Set Article Id's"..

what am I missing here?

<span style="display: none;" mce_style="display:none" class="s5_nd_image">http://www.chiprocks.com/images/top1.jpg</span>

The site is up at www.chiprocks.com

thanks in advance for the help,

Hello, your code is not correct:

<span style="display: none;" mce_style="display:none" class="s5_nd_image">http://www.chiprocks.com/images/top1.jpg</span>

should be:

<span style="display: none" class="s5_nd_image">http://www.chiprocks.com/images/top1.jpg</span>

Also, please make sure the articles are published to a section and category and those are also published. There must be more than one article set in the module's backend and the article id's must be specified and separated by commas.

Hmm... not sure how that got like that, either way I updated the code and it did not work.  I then tried loading the sample content aka site shaper, then editing that code with what I was looking for and it worked.  So all is well.  Thanks for the help,
