Hi, all,

I've successfully installed Xoops to a "mysite.com/cms" directory, and logged into the admin panel. I played around with modules; intalled some new ones, played around with themes and layout. Question: how do I enable the actual website now & upload my content? What else would I need to do? I get some red text at the botton of the admin panel, strongly suggesting that I change some default directories... Simple answer, right? I am stuck, nonetheless. Never used a CMS before.

(The index page / domain's root directory says that I have no permission to access the site and / or a "404 not found" error enountered.)

Many thanks in advance.

It is still where you left it: in the subdirectory /cms/
Because visitors surf to mysite.com, you need to create an index.html file in the root of your site to bridge the gap to the subdirectory.
This can be a kind of introduction page with a link to the site or simply doing a redirect by having a meta tag in the head:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="7;URL=http://www.mysite.com/cms/">


You add specific content by the installed modules, eg articles with the module News, etc.
