Module 2, LA 3: Problems while working on LA2

-->Just posted this in First Class<--

While working on LA 2, I hardly encountered any problems with Plone. FirstClass was a very different matter however.

Plone problems:

- Needed to change from summary view to content view
Solution:Posted on FC, received reply from LF.

- Inserting pictures
Solution:I looked at the information provided on the IOCT web page, where it was explained in detail

I managed to set up most of the website on Plone by just trying out different things, including adding external and internal links, adding tables and enabling the add comment option. I also created a message board, which I had to link as an external page, because it doesn't show up as an option for internal links.

First Class:
At first it reminded me of iWeb, which is the Apple Macintosh application offered as part of iLife '06.
But I quickly found out it is a lot harder to understand.
Problems:
- Linking inbetween the pages (still have not found a nicer way to do it)
- Adding Links (I read the information provided by Tony Browne and found out that by highlighting and right/Ctrl-clicking I can choose the options Make Link and Format Link)
- Formatting the page (I found a way to format the margins, but still not a way to make the whole page look more sophisticated)
- Content view (At first I had called my Welcome page 'Welcome', but when I read Tony Browne's document, I found out it needs to be called 'Home Page', in order to show the webpage.)
- The View Browser option (When clicking on view in browser, the link comes up as http://firstclass.ultraversity.net/~jessica_kelleher/. Luckily, my fellow researcher Lindsey McDonald had previously mentioned that the _ (under-dash) needed to be replaced with a . (dot))
