Layout
When I set up a catagory and I have a list of all articles when I click on one of them I still see the article open up but the list of all the articles stays there. I think it makes a bit ahrd to read the article because you have to scroll down....Any idea son this one...thanks

Hi,
I guess that when you click on the article, in your url the Itemid stays the same, your frontpage's Itemid. Try to create a new menu item, type = articles -> category/section layout, to either your article's category or section. It needs to be published, so maybe you can have a shadow or hidden menu for this kind of items. And then make sure your Global News module is not assigned to that item in the module's configuration.

I mean a menu that won't be necessarily visible in the frontend but it will allow you to assign the wright modules to each item you create to them.
