To begin using Storyteller CMS, you log into the administration control panel via your web browser. Typically the URL will look like this, http://www.yourdomain.com/cadmin/ but that is dependant on where you have installed the Storyteller CMS. From there you will be prompted for a user name and password.
The first screen you will see is the Overview. From here you can access the Black board, a notes utility for exchanging information between administrators and the most recently posted news items per category.
On the left will be the Main Menu form which you can access al the other functions of the Story Teller. Currently these are:
News, Comments, Mailing List, Downloads, Polls, FAQ, Reviews, Pages, Glossary, Trouble Tickets, Plans, Links, Users, Ban, Templates, Spiders, Stats, Logs, Other, Log Out
News:
In this section you can add, edit or remove news items as well as add new category types. To add a news item, simply click ADD then enter the Title of your article. Next you will choose a category type. The default is GENERAL, but you can add as many as you like from the ADD CATEGORY link on the Main Menu.
QUICK CODES are there for those of us who get tired of typing out basic HTML commands. For example if you click the large B, [b]bold text[/b], will appear in the text box. You can also add smiley faces where appropriate. 
Main News is the text that will appear on the main site when the news is posted. Generally this a headline or an abbreviated form of the full news article. Adding a news item with the Title "Add a news Item" and the Main News Text of "This is the text that will appear on the main index page" would look like this when posted.
