Creating new templates

Hi. I’m having problems following instructions for creating new templates in the book I purchased from Packt Publishing (Modx Web Development) which is linked to from this site. It refers to the Resources tab in the Manager area. My Manager interface has no such tab and I can’t find any reference to template creation. I’m using Modx v1.0.0 (Rev 5601). I’m also attaching a screenshot of what my Manager interface looks like. It’s definitely different from the screen shots in the book and even from the docs on this site. No green.

If anyone can help shed some light on this issue I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks much.

Fred

The book probably has screenshots from 0.9.6.3 version.

"Elements" are the new "Resources".

You will find more changes too. But you can always ask here if you couldn’t figure out yourself and we’ll try to help you asap.

Thanks for your interest in MODx and warm welcome to the community.

Thanks so much for such a prompt response. I think I’m going to like it here!

Thanks BobRay. That’s very helpful. I printed it out and have it added to my documentation.
