scroungr, where does IIP get, and store/cache, its information on what database to connect to, what user to use, etc?
I figured out the problem with the news page not updating. It's a bizarre one to me, though . . .
In upgrading to 6.5.1, I copied over the live database (example names given here), siteforums, to a new database, forums. The same database user/password had access to both of them.
IIP was apparently pulling information from wherever it could get it, from either database, but going for siteforums over forums. Once I removed the user from being able to access siteforums, everything started working properly, as it was now pulling information from the newer, correct database.
