    Thanks. I have been to that location a hundred times in the past three days but never clicked on edit which of course is where the changes are made.

    5) What are the main PHP files that zenners tend to edit for layout, and what does each one do? For example, to work on my sideboxes...which php?

    6) Why is it a bad idea to modify the custom template and install a blank one in a "custom" folder. I have this, and still don't understand why.

    I wish there was some sort of blank template with labels showing what each section is called it would be much easier to change things if you knew what they were

    I would love to this this doc.
    Problems I had with, were:
    I did not know how to ask a question on this forum (yes it was that bad!!), as it is called "thread".
    How to create categories for my products ? I have read something on tutorial on this, but I do not find a "new category" button in my "catalog"/"category/product" menu..
    What is a Meta tag.

    I might contact you again as I go...

    I think the forum is good but you waste a ton time trying to find your answers. I've struggled trying to decide what product to use and have decided on ZenCart to move forward with one of them. Anyway....

    Best Practices
    tips and tricks - seems the FAQ section is more of a tips section
    What NOT to do!
    I would agree a basic framework would be nice
    Some pictures illustrating where things are located or how it's impacted... I like picutres!
    Perhaps two tracks - programmer track | cart owner/author/modifier whatever
    Common modules to consider and why

    I know the feeling, GraceBWithYou. - I have spent over a month just chasing down little details and getting very peed off with the lack of help that I find or receive on many little, frustrating things that I need to sort and simply cannot (usually in common with a number of other users seeking answers on the same or similar subjects).

    Fortunately for myself I am familiar with most of the aspects of the cart, but could really use some kind of road map for the PHP side of things.

    - There is no end of help to be found for the aesthetics or the cart, and many people are requesting help on this; although CSS is very easy to get into, but trying to get into the PHP side of things is complicated by the use of deeply nested commands, and multiple arrays which can, no do, make modifying the PHP in Zen Cart absolute hell.

    Added to this is a marked reluctance by those who know to help with many aspects of PHP coding or telling you which files are associated with what. Don't get me wrong, though, Dr Byte always tries to help when they are around, Kuroi, Glen, Misty, Ajeh, and Kobra too, to name just a few.

    I will try to help you if you are having a particular problem with something, just don't get discouraged if your posts go unanswered, especially when they are not simply along the lines of "how do I change the background colour of my index page?"

    Nice overview link, TShooters. - Now we just need some for the PHP side of things...

    ...although, let me guess...

    ...that's probably not a good idea until the release of 4.x.x when all the code will change again...

    help question Re: Things every New Zenner needs to know

    Unbelievably confusing! Somebody ought to be able to explain in 1, 2, 3 terms how to change something simple, like "Sales Message Goes Here." Great, a good start is, where do I go to find it to change it? Is this too much to ask for? Thank you! A Big Newbie Here!
