Kickstarting the learning curve...
Posted: Mon Nov 14, 2005 4:19 pm
Ok, I know some PHP and have done some coding in it before at uni. I've set up some webpages before...but I have never used s9y until now. I am pretty scarce with time to research stuff these days so I was hoping to ask some questions to the devs to shorten the learning curve a fraction.
Any help or direction to relevant documentation would be appreciated.
Here's the idea. I want to incorporate s9y's content building functionality into my webpage (which just recently was taken down and is about to be relaunched). The idea is that instead of manually entering news/etc I'd use s9y's functionality. The only problem I see is that I really don't want/need the calendar and some other functionality that is given by default.
I wish to use the embed feature to output a file. This file, in turn, will be read by another php file via a server-side PHP include of the first file.
This together will make a webpage that is dynamic but still layed-out by my original site's design. I hope that makes sense...
So how does one go about moving around the visual layout manually? I understand there would be some sort of template/style file somewhere which would define this layout... but I need some tips on where to start. I want to remove some stuff like the calendar and links, recent entries etc... I just don't need these things (even though they are useful).
So any ideas where to start people? Thanks in advance.
