Hi Lynne, thanks for the reply.

I only have one style its the default style with some changes. Ive edited block_cmsarticles in vbulletin and then I edited /includes/block/cmsarticles.php in my text editor. I can see all edits when I look there so Im really confused

[Lynne]

Do this - vboptions > General Settings > Add Template Name in HTML Comments > set to Yes . Then go back to your page and view the source code and you will see the name of the template called around that part of the code. What is the template name that surrounds that widget?

Then

This is what I got when I did that Lynne

Thanks for all the help!

Then this is the template you needed to modify - vbcms_widget_recentarticle_page . Your's is a cms widget. This thread started out talking about forum blocks. So, you will need to make the appropriate changes to the widget code and widget templates, not the block code and block templates.

Hi Lynne sorry I took this up wrong. I found code that Dead Eddie put up and it was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for all your help :-)
