Fed Up with it! Why should I continue?

[Packman820]

In following this thread and being a "NOOB" with osCMax and osCommerce could you folks be kind enough to point out some steps/things us Noobs could do that would help us learn how to use these pieces of software. (I know you will say the obvious, like read the documentation, ect.) but anything and everything you can share with me and others like me will help.

Here's an example:

- Read documentation
- Experiment with all the controls before trying to go live with a site. Learn a litlle what each one does.
- Search the forums.
- ????

Can you please add to those above. I am sure I didn't cover much but the obvious things we should do. Your tips would be appreciated.

As far as problems most Noobs like me have, one of the top problems I have is how to modify the pages. Where to look for the code to modify/delete/add. What to add, how to program and all this is a starting point most of us new users start off with. We hope to progress to the next step of making it perform the way we intended.

Guess I can write a book here, but just looking for directions, from there I'll ride the osC highway until I get lost again, then pull over here (or other sites) and ask for directions again. Until then, still parked on the side of the road here....

ps - Be Gentle damn it I'm new....

Well - we all have been there at ONE time.

Maybe checking out the osCDoxWiki
