    • I am willing to help on this if it's of interest. I'm starting on a site where we're doing Joomla, phpBB and wiki so it's a learning curve I'm tackling anyway.

    • The fastest way to get support:

      Following these guidelines will cut your wait time in half.

      www.rockettheme.com/forum/index.php?f=15&t=36997&rb_v=viewtopic

      ‘Self-service’

      The moderators here are constantly updating this thread with the most common problems and commonly asked questions:

      www.rockettheme.com/forum/index.php?f=15&t=54455&rb_v=viewtopic


      Learn how to use FireBug!

      Firebug is a web developers best friend. It is a powerful addon for the popular browser Firefox. It allows you to inspect any element on a page and edit it...live. This proves to be a powerful feature when debugging a site or even adding new elements, without the laborious task of change, save, refresh.

      Please learn more about Firebug in our Firebug Tutorials.

      Watch our Video Tutorial about Firebug's HTML Tab.
      Watch our Video Tutorial about Firebug's CSS Tab.
      Watch our Video Tutorial about Firebug's Script Tab.

      Honestly, we don’t ignore posts!

      There’s about a dozen of us, each with varied expertise, we answer every post we possible can.

      One thing that slows a response is when you bump your original post.

      Although you may think bumping your post will speed a response, unanswered posts stay in the ‘unanswered post’ queue. If you bump a post, it goes into the active posts and can easily get lost.

      IMHO, as a moderator, I don’t think you will see a Rok Wiki.

      Simply put, RT is a subscription driven site.

      You sign up; download as many templates as you like, but if you want to continue downloading templates and receiving support for any template you may be using, you have to be a current member.

      Creating a Rok Wiki would move support from a subscription driven site to the public domain.

      And, in some sense would be reinventing the wheel. There is so much documentation and so many tutorials.

      Follow the proper guidelines for support, post in the proper forum and I’m sure your questions and issues will be resolved in a timely manner.

    • I could not find much time over the last 2months and i have my university exams coming up :cry:

      I still wanted to work on this But Wiki was a bit too much for me right now. So here i am starting a "Rockettheme for Dummies". Its gonna be an eBook or i should say a PDF file. For now its just alpha stage :P I have loads of work to do, I just finished a couple of pages today. Working on the contents for a proper release, hopefully by this month end :mrgreen:

      P.S: Am just trying to index from what we find on the forums. I shall give credits to everyone once am ready for the release :oops:

      Also, sorry for the grammar mistakes. I shall correct them asap.

    • Nice start :)

      You really need to add:

      Don't download our files with Chrome.
      Don't even attempt to try to install the sources.

      And some links to the main support threads

      TIA :)
    • Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.

      A template is only as good as the content that goes into it ;) - DanG
