I was afraid this application would be beyond my skill level.
I was following tutorial #16. I had created a salve site#1, then created a template off that slave site. When trying to create new slave site with the template, I recieved many error messages. So, I decided to delete this new slave in the site manager. When I did this, everything in the entire www rooot directory was deleted with the exception of the multisites config file located in the master joomla site directory I had created. I lost directories and files that had nothing to do with joomla and/or JMS.
Fortunatley I did not have any live sites - but I have lost a lot of efforts on "dummy" sites I was using to learn how to use Joomla and now JMS. I don't understand how this could happen. These other directories had no association with JMS. (at least I thought).
At this point, I feel I may be afraid to move forward in trying to use this product in fear of loosing everything once again.
