See, that was the funny thing. I never load demo data, because all too many times I've had to spend a day or so tracking down all of it to remove it. I did let it load the demo EZ pages. The *first* thing I did after installing (and I followed the readme for that) was to look for a manual. Nope, no manual. So, I went looking for an online manual. Nothing.Originally Posted by dbltoe
So, I started searching the forum. Found the wiki. Downloaded a buncha stuff on the override system, knowing I'd need that. Then hunted down the info on the EZ pages. I had found the demo pages, but they really didn't say all that much about the 3 or 4 places you have to turn 'on' to make them show up.
My main concern is that I have to train my customer on this package. He's *not* a webbie. He's a pool hall owner who thinks Front Page is all that. He will be updating his main page (which is in EZ pages) regularly. This isn't going to be fun, because he'll be *very* confuzzled by the way Zen is laid out.
OK, my next suggestion (along with many of the others in this thread):
A CSS map. I'd like to know what CSS files, and where in those files the various areas come from.
Right now I'm planning on changing the EZ pages sidebox to display menus similar to the CSS flyout menus I'm using on my product catalog.
The site is here:

Not a problem, I'm fairly used to CSS, and Topstyle Pro is a nice little program that makes working with CSS pretty easy, so it shouldn't be that big an issue.
But with the heavy emphasis on CSS, I'm with all the others in that it needs to be given a piece of the 'getting started with Zen' document. It has a lot of power, and if you can find what you need, the rest of it sort of falls into place.
(Thanks for the heads up on the links in my sig, I'd accidently done it like an href, LOL - more sleep, less coding, I guess)
Vicky - running off to finish my design changes....
