I wanna add a new page under new menu. But it doesn't show under the new menu and the new menu doesn't even show. That's my first problem.

I also want that new page to be entered new entries just like a sitenews module. Because the page I created is just like the home page that can be edited via html. I want the option "enter new entry" so that all the entries are separated and you have to click on "read more" to see the whole thing.

Create categories in Site News and use them for pages.

Go to Site Menu Builder and move page under the other page.

It's working just as i wanted. however, one problem. when i clicked on the sitenews, those entries i put into the subcategories are showing in sitenews, too.
the new pages i creates were for musics for movies. and it kind of doesn't make sense when they also appear in sitenews. is there any way i cannot let entires in subcategories appear in the sitenews page?

I think you misunderstood me. I'm creating a NEW menu item under a NEW menu. i can create menus and their items and can see them on sitemenubuilder option. but i don't see then on the home page/ mysite.

I actually figured this one out myself. I had to edit the html in order to put the new menu i was trying to put.

Don't use original Site News. Instead create another category named News.

Duke8954, you can also use other modules for other stuff - e.g. Publisher or Blog.

one after another... wacko
you know when editing homepage content, you put ]</div><?endif?>$LAST_NEWS$ in order to show the latest of the sitenews. what if you want to put ad board's too? where i can find such codes for new categories of sitenews? or how do i write them in the homepage content so it shows the latest of the category.

You need informers - http://forum.ucoz.com/forum/37-457-1

It's not about informers. Informers show whatever you've entered in that module. I don't want that. I want only the latest entries to be seen on the home page which of course will have certain number of entries allowances for a particular module.

Duke8954, and still what you need is informers, that's what they serve for. Examine this feature.

Sunny, I did examined. How about this then; I just want to limit the numbers of the entries of the ad board to appear on the homepage.
But still I want that code thing to show the latest of the ad board. the informers show everything from that module and makes the homepage as long as new entries are created.

Also, Sunny, I know i may be asking it in the wrong section. i tried to edit and put some texts using the visual editor in the module custom design of the ad board. but it wouldn't be edited; it wouldn't be saved. how should i just put some texts like annoucements like right above the categories on the ad board's main page. thanks.

oh i forgot to say that i also want the new ad board's entries on top of the other news entries that are old.
it should also work for $latest-news$ thing too. so that whatever the new entry of any module is on the top of the old entries.

There is such option as Number of entries: in informer settings.

Try to use another browser. However it is better not to use Visual Editor but to edit HTML templates. CP -> Customize Design -> Ad Board -> Module main page -> add texts before $CATEGORIES$

If I get it right you want entries from different modules to be sorted by date on the home page? That is not possible. You can only add different informers for different modules and they will be displayed one by one on the home page. But their order can be changed only manually, they can be sorted automatically according to the date of new entries.

P.S. You may not believe me that I know uCoz better than you and that Informers is what you need, but this is the only uCoz feature that can help you do what you want. Maybe not exactly as you want, but still.

i've decided to put new entries of ad board in a block. in that case, wouldn't using informers make the block too crowded and look awkword?
i just want the titles to appear on the side under the block that says "Ad Board." it's like a tag board. is there any other way to do it except using the tab board?
thanks
Tommy

Duke8954, Sunny already explained everything. What do you want her to do?
You need Informers and you need to explore informers.
Create Ad board informer and create a block using builder and paste the informer code there.
Name the block "Ad board". That's it. It's so simple. You need to try. We can't provide you all the steps.
Already Informers are explained in the thread. Please experiment what you want.
You are not even trying.

Sunny, so a particular informer's entries are in the same region and then the other informer's ... etc. and the informers' position or order can be changed manually?
when i added the infomers' codes to the homepage content, they appeared with no briefs of the entries. i want them to appear like the way latest_news code feature in the homepage content allows.

hey Tommy. I'm actually trying at the same time when i'm asking. maybe it's the words that are to explain simply.
please ignore all previous questions except this...

Duke8954, what do you mean by "briefs"? Anyway what you need is to customize Informer template.
