[support] Help with Views

[Shai Gluskin]

Hi Adam,

Welcome to Drupal.

As you get more experience you'll find Views to be awesome. But now get some experience with Drupal basics. And you don't need Views to do what you want.

In case you haven't figured it out yet, you don't need the blog module to do a blog. The blog module is for a multiple-user blog.

Just go to example.com/node/add/article (or example.com/node/add/story for Drupal 6) to create your post. Remember to click save at the bottom after adding your content. 

For your second post, go back to the same spot: example.com/node/add/article. Put in your content and click save. 

Go to the home page and you'll see both posts with the second one displaying first.

In the examples above, replace "example.com" with the base URL of your web site.

Let us know how it goes.

Best,

Shai Gluskin

Right now, the only way it works is to edit an existing post to update the info. I'm told it has to do with Views, but I tried one tutorial and it's still confusing.  Where can I find a good tutorial or is there a simple change in a setting I have to make?
