Hi – these are more ‘practical intro questions’ rather than ‘techie’

I haven’t installed Teline yet – I’m using Xenia II with iJoomla News and deciding whether so switch to Teline.

1. What’s the practical usage of “Member Area/Hidden Panel” – can anyone give an example how they’d use it?

2. I have gone through the Demo & user-guide but without backend access I can;t see whether the ‘Headings” (World, Asia Pacific, Entertainment etc) are Sections or Categories or a mix

3. I have 5 Sections each having 3-4 categories and VirtuMart- think Pet Shop:
DOGS
> Grooming > Exercise
CATS
> Grooming > Exercise
FISH
> Salt Water > Fresh Water

SHOPPING CART
Dogs – Cats – Fish

Now I have advertisers who want the option to be on:-
a. Front Page – big bucks 😉
b. Dog Section page – generic doggie stuff
c. Dog . Grooming Category Page & all the article pages in the category

In standard Joomla I’d allocate a module to a Menu in the Pages/Items checklist (right on Module window) to specify it shows on one area but not others.

Is this possible ?

4. These ‘Headings’ lead to a List View – is is possible to use the Front-Page style format there also?

5. Sample Content tab leads to a page which ‘could’ be a News page: is it ‘standard Joomla?’ I assume so the images don’t seem thumbnailed.

Hi Shoggard

I won’t try to answer all these questions, as I’m about to leave and do shopping banking etc
however check yur PM I have allowed you super admin access to a test site to check out the back end features, the test site is a complete quickstart install, nothing has been changed

Please respect the trust I have given you:)

Cheers ShannonN
