Need basic help

When I try to edit the info on the home page I get

Error: I can not write to this file. Please set the right user permissions on: /home2/magazine/public_html/includes/languages/english/html_includes/classic/define_main_page.php

How do I change it?

In order to edit the define files, you need to set the directories and files to 777 ...

/includes/languages/english/html_includes

Later, when all is done, you can change them for security purposes ...

NOTE: you should take the time to look into templates and overrides first and start out right on setting up your site ...

You are showing that you are using Classic template and that will get overwritten on an upgrade ...

I'm sorry but I don't even know how to do what you've said. I apologize, but I am brand new at this, is there a video tutorial on the basics available?

I figured out how to change the permission, but I still can't edit any pages.

Make sure you have changed both the directories and files to 777 ... or you will have issues ...

NOTE: if you are changing template files, you should have a full copy of all files from:
/includes/languages/english/html_includes

located in the:
/includes/languages/english/html_includes/your_template_dir

and set that directory and files to 777 ...
