Hello, I am brand new to this stuff, I dont have any experience with websites at all, so i dont know if i am going to be able to do this but i am willing to learn.

I want to make a website for my World of Warcraft guild. I have a host at Invision Power Services. It says it has PHP Nuke installed. so i purchased a Theme at Themeportals.com, I ws told by Themeportals that i needed at least ATlite to make it work so i DL it and unzipped it and uploaded it to the what i think is the correct root directory on my host (public_html) I followed all the ATlite install directions and read the userguide in the docs folder, i followed the instruction to the T, but something is not right.

I hope its just something simple. but like i said i know nothing about this stuff. Is there a complete guide or a how to somewhere that can get me up and running?

I admit i have no clue what i am doing. So far all i get is few purple and green colors like this site. www.dodgamers.com/bane/themes/AutoTheme/admin.html I would really like some help, at least get pointed in the right direction. thanks
josh

I don't see PHPNuke on your site?
All I see is a flash site, where is PHPNuke installed?

[edit] Oh lol yeh i guess that would help to have phpnuke installed wouldnt it?.

OK i got phpNuke 7.8 on the site. YAY!
Autotheme works! YAY!
the Theme i bought (WoW7) t is uplaoded and works. YAY again!

www.baneguild.net

all i had to do was load the PHP application thru vdeck on Ipowerweb host - which i did. So now im in business, but i need a small little hint for what i do next.
my goal is to "emmulate" this site i found using the same theme, i want to run it almost identacally feature wise. it at www.sircasm.com/wow/index.php


Yes, Im starting from scratch as a complete N00b on all this and at age 32 I finally discovered what i enjoy and want to do (possibly for money some day) I think i want to go to school or this stuff, it might help me.

thanks for help anyone!

PHPNuke is a Content Management system. You don't edit and upload content, you post stories /news directory on the site in the admin panel.

The other parts of that site are modules that get installed in the system.

Hey thanks for the help.. im getting the hang of it now.
check out what i got so far
my website: http://www.baneguild.net

I had alot of the usual problems with PHP/MySQL like the admin loop bug, and a bad register URL in the email, but i got a wide variety of answers on various forums/how-to's.

I do have more questions and concerns like, Im looking for good WoW mods and addons to make it better, I havent been able to find a good calendar. I am also thinking of spiffyjr's PHPRaid. anyone with tips/advice I would appreciate, but i think this stuff is more appropriate for the portalthemes or nukecops forums .

anyway thanks again for the help mars. you rock!
