Hi Yakuma !

Please consult this guide in our Documentation section:

Hm, I was still not too clear with the documentation. Do these templates have to be installed manulally, not some "install now" button?

There is no automatic istaller at this time... sorry!

But if you can work a double-click/copy/paste you should be fine.

Oh okay, I thought I was missing something. Thanks.

I was just wondering about installing templates.

I have downloaded a zip file with various files in it.

there is a folder called assets , which has other folders and files in it. there are 3 html pages and one jpg. when i go to edit/add templates in the manager, there is a text area .

I guess I need to copy and paste one of the html files, but what about the other files and the assets folder. does the assets get uploaded to the modx installation?

I think this is the best guide to modx: http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/Beginner’s_Guide_to_MODx

That and: http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/Placeholders_used_by_MODx_Pages_and_Templates

It require one go through all of it with patience. But once done, one is in da game!
