Here's something weird. I just removed phptemplate since I had the wrong version, as I had 4.6 and my Drupal is 4.5. Ok, so then I upload phptemplate and I get an error that it cannot find argument one in phptemplate. This shows up when I select administer>>themes Any ideas what could cause this? I know it said that I have drupal 4.5 when I did the install. Then I installed another version of drupal and then uploaded phptemplate and got the same problem. This is using phptemplate 4.5 with drupal 4.5 Is there a way to check the install to ensure that if Fantastico said it is installing 4.5 that indeed is the version? I'm sure there is but what is the fastest way to do drupal version check? thanks, Bruce

The most common is that people never read the install.txt and miss step 6, a very important step.
There is a handbook page: Drupal version numbers and which version you should use http://drupal.org/node/27362 in the top level of the /handbook page that explains this.

I noticed something interesting. The documentation was pointing out how incompatible 4.7 4.6, 4.5, and 4.4 are in terms of themes, and perhaps modules. Fantatico is used for the installations of Drupal and it now installs Drupal 4.5 I think. So, when the themes that I got that were 4.6 versions seemed to work, the idea that I was using the 4.6 version of the theme may have explained some few bugs or problems. They seemed to work ok, but I guess that might explain some things. I just noticed that the themes and modules have different versions that just won't work if paired with the wrong version of Drupal. So, we don't have backwards compatibility with themes or modules, correct?

Here's another question relating to the prior posts I had on creating content and adding it to a menu. I thought that there was a way to have a story, page, book page, etc when you publish it select where it should appear on the menu, i.e. with parent Navigation or parent mycustom menu/mysubmenu etc. Can that be done and how?
It is not automatic, but you can create menu and submenu items like you are asking about. First you have to make sure the Menu module is enabled in admin/modules. Next go to admin/menu and go to town. You can add menu items to the main Navigation menu, or add a separate menu. If you add a new menu, you'll need to go to admin/block to show it.
Then the question that follows is what I think is already answered for me sufficiently. But, I was planning to create a site with Drupal for an Architectural firm. The idea was to give them a way to maintain the site, update it, etc. without me when I finish. I'm not assuming the customer can do any programming or web design. That can and has been done for companies/customers, with Drupal, correct? Only when certain administrative tasks are required would they need to call me again. That's reasonable to do with Drupal, correct? Thanks,
Yes, that is correct.
