Joomla Page Editing?
How do I edit the Joomla pages that are on the default template? I am aware of the admin control panel, but I dont know how to edit all the other pages like the home page. Are there separate menus?

You would need to have some programming skills, but since you already have a template it isn’t hard to change certain things. If you have Microsoft Frontpage (or any FTP Program) copy all the Joomla Template Files to your computer. In the directory template/YOURTEMPLATE/index.php will be the main page for your Joomla Web Site. I’d make a copy of it and call it indexOrig.php before editing it (just in case). Then you will see the basic PHP and HTML code that you can change. Sometime its easier to view the website in Internet Explorer and do “View Source”, so can see the difference between how the browser sees the code and the actual index.php file. Play around with making changes, upload the file to your web site and see how it looks - as long as you have the original backed up, you’ll be fine.
Hope that helps - I’ve developed about 10 Joomla sites over the past 6 months and that was how I learned.
