Hello Brian
Welcome to Xoops!
Let me ask you a couple of questions so that we can better tailor some responses:
-Have you installed xoops yet?
-was it installed through your hosting provider or did you install it yourself?
There are a couple of basic definitions you will have to learn to use xoops:
BLOCKS - Think of these as little pieces of your webpage (such as login, news or articles). Using blocks you can display a login block on diferent parts of your xoops site.
MODULES - A module extends the functionality of xoops. If you visit the module repository you will see modules for forums, news, articles and many more.
THEMES- Xoops was built with a clear separation of content from presentation. In practical terms this means you can change the "look" of xoops and still keep all your information intact. You only alter the design.
meanwhile you can start browsing the
wiki,
faq to start getting some answers.
There are also some very good video tutorials..I'll see if I can find the links... if anyone else has them handy please post them
