Welcome

Welcome to my new blog which is aiming to provide some clear instructions for those developers who are looking to develop with the superb N2CMS platform.

One of the complaints about N2CMS is that there's a lack of clear documentation and also that the instructions and tutorials aren't clear. I'll be honest and say that over the last year that I've been using it, I've found a few hurdles in the way but once you've mastered them you'll see just how easy it is to make pretty impressive content managed websites. I'm going to try where possible to use screenshots from Visual Studio, real code samples and not really delve too much into the "under the hood" code. The aim will be clear examples wherever possible to help solve "real world" problems that I've found.

I'm going to try to dump everything I've picked up in the last year into this blog. I daresay some of it you'll know, some of it might not be 100% correct but I hope there's a few tips that you will be able to pick up on and find useful.

Cheers!

I'm going to assume that readers will at least know some ASP.NET and C# and have Visual Studio 2008.

  2. Hello Quang

    When you run N2 for the first time and create your site, when you go to "view" it you will be in the admin mode. On the left hand side of the screen you'll see your site structure and the features page is there. Simply click on it to view it.
