Cool 2 Modules don't show

I wanted to show a download link for map reviews like you can see here :

http://www.ut2004world.de/phpkit/inc...&contentid=222

So I created a new custom field :



I went then to modules > Default Review Module Set > Add Modules > Custom Field > Inside Header

I clicked then on the Custom Field and made those settings :



But the link simply does not show up



I also add User Ratings but as you can see it is not displayed either



Can someone give me small hint what I am doing wrong ?

Caching your settings gives you an ENORMOUS speed boost. I think there is also a very subtle bug with module execution when you do not use the cache settings option. I have yet to totally track it down, however setting admincp->gars->settings->Cache settings to yes normally sorts it out.

Yepp, this did the trick.
So I should use Cache in the setting, but don't cache in the module ?

You dont need to cache the custom field module

Glad to hear it worked.

here is info on caching.

Off the top of my head only featured and top modules use the cache.
