Need general help

Hi-

New to yootheme and am really frustrated with the experience. I was able to install a theme and the widgitkit and zoo but I'm at a loss as to what to do next. Is there anywhere I can go to find tutorials on how to actually use these items....how to make a homepage? how to add widgets/apps? How do anything other than install this? The tutorial library doesn't seem to be online...the documentation in the support section doesn't really address how to build a site once you've installed the template. I was under the impression that this would relatively simple and have had the exact opposite experience.

Thanks.

Thanks for the quick response....but is there anyplace where I can watch a tutorial explaining how to set up the Zoo and Widgit kit modules? They used to exist on the old site....and the yootheme tutorial URL doesn't seem to work.

Thanks.

Hi,

Im new too. Under "new to Yootheme?" it says there are theme specific tutorials. I can't find them though. Is there any theme specific documentation available? Like module positions and stuff?

Thanks!

Regards
Guido

Generally nothing is simple, click, update everything works like you want it to, there is some effort involved in developing a website

To assist users that are new to Joomla, YOOtheme and Web Design, there are Demo packages available to help you see how the template demos were set up and the see how the features are used. This is especially handy for those that cannot understand the Tutorials. I advise you to set up these Demo packages on a localhost, like WAMP, XAMPP etc ... . For the templates you can set up the Cloud Demo packaages and this will demo the Template frameworks and the WidgetKit. ZOO has its own Demo package too.

Video Tutorials are no longer available, The WidgetKit Admin area has some information and Sample Code to help you too. The ZOO Docs are quite comprehensive with regard to setting up an App, assigning elements etc ... and as I mentioned, the Demo packages will help you a great deal more than any type of Tutorial.
