I wish I was bored with lots of money |
I'm just having trouble wrapping my mind around this, it's not very intuitive, but once I get a walk thru I'll be good to go. |
So I go to my home page and see a frame that says Boonex News. How do I work with that and change the articles? And add new ones. I'm sorry. That is a default block, in the page builder section. You will be able to "drag" blocks to and from any page. The Boonex news block cannot be edited and can be removed. To edit your "Articles or News" on the index, you will need to add news and articles in the administration page. i.e. to add news use yoursite.com/m/news/admin/ ManOfTeal.COM a Proud UNA site, six years running strong! |
Do I first create a category? Then go to the news module and create an article? What is the home page called on the builders menu. I don't see anything that matches it. So that I can delete the boonex news and add my news. |

I see that is what the Boonex News in when you first install Dolphin.

Hi Smurphy. If you don't read and familiarise yourself with any software platform, you will have a million and one questions which will take time to answer each and every one. You need to read, familiarise yourself with the platform and ask the questions that are challenging you. Am not criticising, but the questions you're asking above shows you haven't done this. They are extremely basic questions. You'll always find people here to help, but it'll take you a long long time (and frustration) to design the system you want, if you haven't spent the time to read and learn. |
You are criticizing me dude what a troll, I did read it. Some of us learn differently. Now that I have a picture in my head and where to begin I'll be ok. AND what's wrong with newbie questions even if they did not read the manual. I so want to cuss right now lol.
Thanks newton27 and geek girl for pointing me in the right direction. |
