I'm using tt_news with TemplaVoila!, yet changing template in plugin  
configuration (Web > Page module) doesn't change the display - it still  
uses plugin's default template (I'm using css one).
I could probably change it through 'plugin.tt_news' via TS, yet I have two  
sections of tt_news on one page and each of them should have it's own  
template.
How could I do it and why the setting in Web > Page module doesn't work?
