Furthermore, every respective category has limit for number of articles shown inside it. You have to insert any number but zero to allow showig articles for specific category.

Q: I don't see any articles in selected category?
A: If you have published articles, and still do not see them when clicking on individual categories, check in Administration > Category management for "Number of articles" field for respective categories. If it is set to 0, change to any positive number that represents number of articles you wish to see for individual category.

Q: I tried to edit template from admin area but I got an error?
A: You have to make sure all templates are "writeable". They need to have CHMOD 666 permissions in order to amend them from administration area instead directly from FTP client.

Q: I see only "Article management" in administrations, nothing more.
A: If you see this, it means you are logged in as "writer", or "editor". Only "admin" privilege level has access to all administration options and features. Log out, and log in with proper user name.
