Yes, your changges will be overwritten and yes, it is hard to keep track
of.  The key here is to NOT make this a habit. One hack might be manageable
-- but they can start piling up...

Also, stay on top of the module developer and provide encouragement and
whatever is needed to upgrade the module so that this feature is
configurable. Then everyone benefits.

Best,

Shai

the page being created by a View in which you mistakenly selected "Full

would also cause your problem. You'd have to change that selection to
"Teaser" -- but what I wrote above would still apply, you'd need to make
sure that in your under "display" fields you had set each field properly for
its display value for the teaser.
