Just starting out...

Hi,

I am just starting out with TP… any suggestions for top-notch tutes that will take me through the inner-workings of TP?

I am migrating from Expression Engine.

I plan to build a simple frontend blog with a PUnbb forum (kinda like this site setup.)

Sorry if this has been asked a billion times before. :(

Thanks in advance… and yes, I am open to RTFM responses (btw, where is TFM?)

Cheers,
Micky

TFM :) (see the links at the top of the forum pages.) Start with this (also read the articles that are linked from there).

Ok, that was an easy find… doi!

So, I guess I want to know what helped you out in learning the inner-workings of the TP admin interface? I can code decently enough, I just want to know the basic steps one would take to produce a working blog-esque site…. Anyone got any links to specific kick-butt TP tutorials?

TIA :)

Purrrrrfect… looks like a good place to start. :)

Thanks Els, I appreciate it. I promise my future questions wont be so/as noobie style.

Cheers,
