Hello, 

I'm wondering if the text in the news module (outlined in black box in photo) can be edited. I don't want it to say New Meeting Search. If it can be edited, where do I go to change the text? Additional information, when a user clicks New Meeting Search, it takes them back to the main page that lists all the articles. I would greatly appreciate any help I can get.

The screen shot indicates that you are using EasyDNNNews.
I haven't looked at this module for several years, but my recollection is the the display is driven by templates that you can change.
I'd think that the next step would be to get a copy of the manual for the module, and you get get it my downloading the trial version of EasyDNNNews from https://www.easydnnsolutions.com/Download. You need to register at the site first. The manual is packaged into the zip file.

Hi Sara,

Just came across this old post.
If the text is not ini the template, it will be in the resx file. So, the language file.
To change this, you go to languages-edit language and drill down through desktopmodules/EasyDNNNews

Now comes the search part. As EasyDNNNews is really extensive, there are several options. A lot resides in EasyDNNNews View but for this case I can imagine that there is something like Calendar view.
