Some of my modules do not seem to be working correctly... how does one add a FAQ, or a Forum topic to the site... And shoutbox doesn't have an input section either????



I have used most of the CMS systems out there (PHP NUKE, PostNuke, Envolution, Xoops, MyPHPNUKE, PHP-Website, Mambo... varios others) but I love this one the most!! Maybe I'm just overlooking something??

Any help would be appreciated.

what do you mean "not working correctly"?

Any error messages?

Well, you need to "install" modules. There is one part you need to take care of:
copy/upload the module files on your webspace.
The remaining parts - opn will take care of them

OK, almost

Enter the admin area, click on modules, click on the kind of the modules (e.g. system modules for special sections) an klick on the install link.

Hi,
answered the question in the OPN FAQ Module. Have look at the navigation bar at this screen, there is now a new button FAQ.

Click this button and find "How to create a FAQ "

I activated the shoutbox here...see at the main menu the item "Talking Free".

Go in the Admin Sidebox and choose "Menu Box Main Menu" and find there Talking free. Activate this entry and there will appear a new entry in your Main Menu. Click it and you can enter something.

Thanks for the quik reply guys!!

Actually, I have the buttons...
These modules are showing up
just how does a user add a question to FAQ.
Also, how does Forum work? I can't even add as an admin??

Very nice system... as I said, it is probably my lack of understanding of this system yet that is my proplem...

and shoutbox shows up, just no way to add a shout??

Administration --> Modules Administration Menu --> FAQ

In the following menu create a category

Categories: type a name "some test category"
Theme Group: all
User Group: anonymous
Klick add

Now there should be your new category "some test category" on the screen
Click "some test category" and there will be a new screen called "Add your question"
Type in your question :" How to create a FAQ"
Type in the answer

click add.

You may go in the settings menu of FAQ and
click yes to "Switch on theme Navigation".
Click "Save changes"
You will then get a button in the navigation bar named FAQ.

I have already done all of this... in fact, I have several modules working fine... I just uploaded and installed weblog... it shows up, but no way to ADD stuff.. this is the same prob as other module I am talking about....

i.e. I click the button on top nav, I get the proper pages, but I see no "Add" type buttons or input fields??


so I got modules installed... How do I add say... a "Weblog"? If there is no "Add Weblog" type button?

Seems to be something I am missing, as it is the same problems as other "trouble" modules

Thanks for your patience... I am trying to explian properly...

what kind of browser are you using?
can you make a screenshot of it?
