I can't seem to edit, add or delete the navigation bars or Menu/submenu buttons on this new theme I installed?

To edit the top menu edit the file:
themes/ixt00902/tpl/globalnav.html

By default it will add links and sublinks like the main menu.

To edit the slideshow and demo buttons edit the file:
themes/ixt00902/tpl/slides1.html

I have made the changes but they are not showing up on the site. I have also changed the chmod to 777. Is there anything else I might be missing?

You don't need 777 permissions on these files. Clear your cache folders (xoops_data/caches/smarty_cache and smarty_compile) except the index.html files.

YAY! Got it working now! Now I just have to figure out how to link the menu items?

I am being told,
WARNING: File /home/gonzomus/public_html/newsite/mainfile.php is writeable by the server.
Please change the permission of this file for security reasons.
in Unix (444), in Win32 (read-only)

WARNING: Folder /home/gonzomus/public_html/newsite/xoops_lib is inside DocumentRoot!
For security considerations it is highly suggested to move it out of DocumentRoot.

WARNING: Folder /home/gonzomus/public_html/newsite/xoops_data is inside DocumentRoot!
For security considerations it is highly suggested to move it out of DocumentRoot.

What does all this mean?

Re: Navigation editing problems

Read the XOOPS 'Release_notes.txt' that came with the files you downloaded from xoops.org

It's all explained in there.

Mainfile.php must be chmoded to 444 so that people can't read/write to the file which contains all your critical info!

Installing XOOPS
-----------------------------------
1. Copy the content of the htdocs/ folder where it can be accessed by your server
2. Ensure mainfile.php and uploads/ are writable by the web server
3. For security considerations, you are encouraged to move directories "/xoops_lib" (for XOOPS libraries) and "/xoops_data" (for XOOPS data) out of Document Root, and change the folder names.
4. Make the directory xoops_data/ writable; Create (if not already present) and make the directories xoops_data/caches/, xoops_data/caches/xoops_cache/, xoops_data/caches/smarty_cache/ and xoops_data/caches/smarty_compile/ writable.
5. Access the folder where you installed the htdocs/ files using your web browser to launch the installation wizard
