Re: [opensuse] n00b: Using Joomla to create a website.

I'm trying to use Joomla to build a website. This may not be the right
approach. But in any event, I want to get an attractive site up quickly,
but as I dig around it looks like I'm going to be doing a lot more HTML
and CSS stuff than I expected. I was going to use a template that uses
the JA T3 framework, which I thought had an admin panel. I have gone
through some of the Joomla documentation, and am just lost at this
point. If i have to do CSS and such, I'll learn it through
Codeacademy.com but I would like some tips, if somebody could point me
to the right direction. I'm open to using another CMS if it would be
easier. I just want to get a relatively simple but compelling site up
for my small business. Should I use a WYSIWYG editor like Kompozer?

I'm just lost, and need some pointers so I can actually understand what
I need to know to get where I want.

Hello:

I few months ago I went through this.
I tried Joomla as well and found myself in learning css and php.
Eventually I gave it up because I had no time, and made a legacy html page.
That is, Joomla is OK if you have a template which fits your needs exactly.
But if you want to modify the template it becomes difficult, especially if
you don't know css, php.
I don't know other database based webpage creators, but as others also
suggested, making a static page might be sufficient even for a small business.

If you find a nice Joomla template and decide to go with Joomla these
documents may help:
