WOW I AM SOOOOOOO STUPID I am using the template version of osc and i couldnt figure out what was wrong then I remembered that the template version has its own box directory and that i needed to change the file there. i did that and BANG. it works

i had deleted this file already. they only files i have are the ones that came with the contrib

I did everything you said and I still get Forbidden You don't have permission to access /catalog/includes/languages/english/mainnews.php on this server. i dont know what i could be doing wrong as I do not see this call anywhere in the files.

it is back to this You don't have permission to access /catalog/includes/languages/english/mainnews.php on this server. i thought the file was not lmainnews?

all that stff you told me to do did absoutly nothing

File Not Found The requested URL was not found on this server. Please go to www.Tank27.com and contact the webmaster. it is there

go to http://www.tank27.com/catalog you will see that you get FORBIDDEN in the news area. no matter what I do or what permissions I set it never changes

why did you release a contrib that does not work

doesnt work

When you use the mainnews.php in the language folder you get access forbidden why is that?
