Cool! It's neat that you post this PG, because I was about to post and ask if anyone knew a good open source program similar to Dreamweaver. Should I go with this one, or try something else, since it looks like you are having issues with it?

I wouldn't say "issues" -- I would say "I am clueless." :lol:

We have Joomla installed on our server, and I got a template I really like, but can't seem to install that template. I know it is an "operator malfunction" on my part. Remember, I am a Mac user unaccustomed to reading instructions!

Not to put him on the spot, but send an e-mail to Jeremy. He has been working with Joomla, lately and could probably be willing to give you some advice. I'll try to remember to point him to this thread.

And Daniel did point me to it ... about 5 minutes after I left the house for supper (it's my anniversary... figured we better go somewhere nice!)

Anyway, installing the template should be fairly straightforward. If you want, contact me at my WinWorld E-Mail (my Gmail is a bit out of hand, currently) ... jeremy.gault (at) winworld (dot) com. Let me know what version of Joomla you are running, what the URL is, etc. I'll check it out and also see if I can send you step-by-step info on how to install the template.

(Or you can drop me a PM here and I'll try to remember to check it!!)

I just tried messing with this myself. Good grief. I think once it got set up completely it would be nice but it was too much for me. :shock:

The template part was easy. LOL!!

Had a glitched directory in the template - fixed that. Now trying to learn how to actually add content. :shock:

Yeah. That "__MACOSX" directory'll get ya every time. :)

I'm in the same boat though -- I am still figuring out how to do all the content and stuff in the site I am working on right now. I've found that Google is your friend -- I poked around for a while trying to get that RSS feed on there to no avail. Two minutes on Google and it was done. :)
