Hello all!
Note: my understanding of coding is very limited.
1. Thank you so much for this CMS! Nice
2. I already messed something up
I am getting these 2 errors
../data/other/components.xml XML Invalid - Error!
../backups/other/components.xml.bak XML Invalid - Error!
I think I disabled the sidebar component and the tagline component. I was trying to remove the content in the sidebar to later replace it, but now I have no idea how to add new content in it, and I am guessing the errors above are related. How do I fix this?
3. Security question:
Wouldn't it be proper security practice to rename the admin folder?
Also, how come the robots.txt file excludes the admin folder? That is a perfect way to tell a hacker where that folder is... right? If I rename the admin folder (if that is possible), is there a better way to ensure that the search engines do not index it (than robots.txt)?
4. What is the get-simplest way to create multiple language sites along with the English one? I was planning to translate in Mandarin first (not me, someone would translate it for me), would Chinese characters be supported?
5. I am guessing I should create my own override template if I make changes to the template? Otherwise during a backup the template will be overwritten? Or how does that work with this CMS?
6. Is there a simple tutorial on how to change the template, like changing colors, putting a banner at the top, etc? (I am guessing I should use the CSS for all that, right?)
7. I must be doing something wrong with the html editor. Everytime I want to put a line break it starts a new paragraph, so I have to edit the code and include a break manually. Is there something I am missing?
I am sure I'll have more questions later
Thanks!
