Joomla 1.5: How Do I Add/remove Modules?
I have a Joomla website and I have installed a template I downloaded for free. How do I modify the modules? And how do I find out what a module is exactly for? If someone could send me an idiot-proof guide it would be perfect… and any tips or advice will be much appreciated!

Th best guide to Joomla is of course the Joomla.org website.
There they have in the extensions section all avaible module and other sorts of addons such as components and fully featured plugins.
Addons take 3 basic forms:
Modules - frontend elements which be loaded within a template.
Components - utilities which run inside Joomla and often need modules function or be used on the website.
Plug-ins - additional programs which significantly enhance the functioning of Joomla
In version 1.5 they are all loaded from the same install option on the administrator’s backend menu. Versions 1.0.xx has separate install options for each.
You can learn about programming modules from Joomla helpp section for developers.
All the best,
