I am new to CB and am trying to install and configure a demo site. After I installed mamblog I entered a sample blog and was surprised to find it listed as a "latest News" item on the front page.
I searched these forums and found something about changing the parameter in the latest news module but no details.
I figured it out, so I am sharing the fix here.
I am using a clean install of Joomla 1.0.12
1.open the section manager in admin and note the sectionID of the mamblog section. For me it was 4.
2. edit the /modules/mod_latestnews.php file
[code:1]edit line 107
. "\n WHERE ( a.state = 1 AND a.sectionid > 0 )"
change to read
. "\n WHERE ( a.state = 1 AND a.sectionid > 0 AND a.sectionid != 4 )"[/code:1]
where the mamblog sectionID was 4 as shown in the section manager
!= means does not equal
This removed the blog entries from being displayed in the latest news list.
