Hi All,

i have finally dived into the cms world and have found out how easy they are to use :)

however i have come unstuck, i am currently modifing a template and i have set up my articles but the problem im having is when i click on a link and it shows a certain article the page layout is always the same, and i dont know how to redirect the links to show a page apart from the index page with some get information attached.

ive seem some examples where all the links show a different formatted page so i know it can be done just dont know how.( i know about css etc but i cant seem to change the link path to link to another page except the index?)

also is it possible to save certain articles in a different db table? on one of my pages i want to display the titles of certain articles. is that what i would use category and section manager for???

sorry for the basic questions
if someone would be so kind to help me out i'd appreciate it!!

p.s is there no cms sub-forum on here?
is this the correct place to ask cms questions?

thanks
Luke

ok i think i have figured it out :)

is there a way an admin user could delete an article? without having to log into the control panel?

also is there a way to remove the create an account link as i only want specific users using the site :)

thanks
Luke

For Joomla stuff, you should probably look here first:
http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=268189

Not that we don't know Joomla, but those people are Joomla experts (unlike myself).
