I have decided to create a users guide for Eblah.  Not a guide for Webmasters who install and administer Eblah, but a guide for your members to refer to that will explain all the different features of your forum along with an FAQ section.

I intend to create this guide in a generic fashion so all Eblah owners can incorporate it into their forums.

What I need is suggestions on main topics for the guide and input on using the many different features so I can outline and layout the guide.

You can see a rough draft of what I am thinking at http://fhelp.phxweb.net/mainfiles/index.html .

Thanks,

Dan Wallace.

How to register, login, logout, changing passwords, etc.

You might get a little help by looking at the old docs on the website, not sure.

Glad to see someone start this.  

I had been kicken around this idea myself.  I was thinking that if you just logged into your board as a "clean member" or even as a "guest" (dump your cookies so you can trick the machine into thinking your not you) and just start hitting the buttons from left to right.  As each menu and option opens ya type the instruction into the "Help" file.

Later it could be indexed, keyworded, and put into a nice neat HTML format.

Just my two cents worth.

Justin,

Where can I download a copy of the old documentation?

Why do they name Harley's after tampons?  Ya'know: Super-Glide, Wide-Glide, Gentle-Glide, etc.
