Thanks, Bassman. I was looking at the Blocks page, and it seemed you could set the visibility for the different groups, but it was not having any effect.

So... Users will get the permission problems if I make news the default module, which means I need to have no default module. So, how do you get the redirect to news after the login?

Thx for answering such simple questions.

This has gotta be simple. I am creating a private site for family, and I want to display nothing until they log in, at which time the news module will the default module.

When I make news the default module, it displays the news for anonymous users. I want anonymous users to have access to nothing but the login stuff. Is there a simple way to restrict things the way I want?

TIA.

Thanks for the info.

I saw the "Clone" option for templates, and was wondering if there was a way to export them, too. I kind of had assume there was - cool.

I need to read up on the theme/template terminology.

Do you use XSAS for local work?

btw - I hope things pick up for you. And "Pining the fjords" sounds like the title for a song...

Thanks Lance. When I do that, I can log in, but then the Admin button doesn't show up on the menu... I'll piddle with it some more here.

btw - I'm impressed with your site - the FGTH one, too. Cool.

Whoa - XSAS is cool. Very cool.

Exactly what is associated with the db and what with the theme? I'm thinking of using XSAS to twiddle and tweak, and then I'd be ready to upload stuff to the online site. However, I'll of course need to know what was put in the db so that I (I guess) will have to replicate doing that with the online admin tool.

Speaking of tweaking a theme, is it best to just copy an existing theme to a new directory and hack away? Are ALL of the things associated with the theme centralized in the theme's subdirectory?

If the site does not really have/need users to log in, and so you want to not show the login boxes, how do you get to the control panel to do admin stuff?

Point me at a FAQ answer if I missed something :)

I'm looking at XOOPS (and cms in general), and was wondering how people administer it day-to-day. Do you

- do all things via a web control panel, and depend on backups on the server?

OR

- do things locally on your box, and then upload as necessary, so that you always have the "official" versions of your (non-db) content of the site?


The reason I ask is that I am a little nervous about not doing things locally, uploading as necessary. I am not even sure if this is something easy to do.



-TIA
