Simple Site

Hi,

After messing around with xoops, I'm finding it a great thing to use. However, I need some help...!

I'm looking to put up a simple site, that requires no registration (which I've managed now). I want the users to simply be able to post a message on the site in a category of their choice (which I've managed to do), which can then read easily.

I've been using the news module for this, and although it's ok, I can't seem to be able to do the simple thing i want.


I want to be able to go straight to the submit news page from the main menu, in fact if anyone would care to look at the site, they'll know what I mean...its http://www.iconfess.co.uk
I'm sorry if I'm not supposed to put a URL in here. Any advice would be brilliant....cheers,

Graham.

Hi,

What I'd like to do is to be able to have one link in the main menu which says, 'Submit confession' which takes you to the form to fill in.

Thanks,

G

You got yourself a really cool idea for a site.

If you look in your language files /modules/news/language you will be able to change the words being used. For example, instead of "Submit News" you can change this to Submit Confession.

You can also change things like instead of "Topic" you can make it read "subject" or category. This can all be done in teh laguage file.
