Idiots guide?


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I took over an adult site recently, i have zero knowledge of anything to do with websites etc. and before i took over i was told it was as easy as using word etc, I now know that is not true. I can use a computer - of course and basic programs and have watched the tutorial on adding items etc so i know how to do that. But i don't understand the lingo or how i can work in the background of my site e.g changing the welcome, adding on bits adding links to promote my site ..well the list goes on.

 

I was wondering if there is anywhere i can get a guide to how this all works in palin english so that i can teach myself, I have not had the benefit of setting it up to know what goes where etc and i can't afford to pay a web developer to do it for me.

 

Any suggestions ?

To change text, search the language files for the text you want to change (you can use windows explorer to do this, if you have a backup copy of the website on your PC, as you should).

To add bits and pieces, look in the contributions (add-ons) area for what you want http://addons.oscommerce.com/
