Cannot control content type teaser

OpenPublish 6.x-1.20, core: drupal 6

I am having an issue controlling the content type display teaser. I am trying to use views to show the teaser display of a node reference field attached to an article. (In more human terms: My article content type has a field -> 'More in this series'. This field is a node-reference. I want to display the 'More in this series' field as a teaser, not as the default title.)

When I create this with views, the fields that represent what the teaser is are seemingly random. The title does not show, the field_teaser does not show.... Only the byline, main image, and main image caption show.

I have checked in the content type > manage display section of the nodes being referenced by 'More in this series' node reference field, and they are set correctly to show all fields that I desire to be shown.

I know that OP sometimes will override certain things in the module folder. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is one of those things....

Thanks so much for the help,
Allie
