Hi John,

Welcome to our.umbraco

1) You need to install this package, you can do so from the Developer Section Packages-->Install local package

2) This will install all the tempaltes, css, etc. You can now edit them from the Settings Section.

Regards,

Chris

Sorry to post again, only been using it for about an hour and still get used to it, can you tell me how to do this.

Have you managed to install the package? (step 1)

Have you had a look in the wiki for general help with Umbraco?

e.g. http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/how-tos/getting-started-with-umbraco-what-is-next-after-you-install

yes I can see a  "The Umbraco admin page has three main panes: Content (top left), Sections (bottom left), and the main panel (large panel on the right)."

is that correct? what do i do next?

Hi John,

To install this package

1) Go to the Developer section (bottom left)
2) Expand the 'Packages' section
3) Click 'Instal' local package
4) 'Browse' to the downloaded file and follow the instructions on screen.

It looks like you need help with the general setup of Umbraco and not the configuration of this package. You'd get a better response from the forums http://our.umbraco.org/forum/getting-started/installing-umbraco or http://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions

Thanks for your help so far :)

It is not compatible with my version of Umbraco yet so will have to hope it is compatible soon.

What version are you using 4.6?

I've not tested it with 4.6, but can't see why it wouldn't work.

Remember to mark the solution to this thread once you're ready to do so.

4.6.1

Can you give it a try?

Hi, I have tried this, I went on packages > umbraco package repository and it is on there to download which saved me downloading the file then re-uploading it then it outputs the following message: "No connection to repository. Runway could not be installed as there was no connection to: 'http://packages.umbraco.org' "

mmmm that sounds like an issue with the package repository. Try downloading it manually

I have tried that but windows is blocking the file been downloaded, sent the .zip file to home email address and hopefully going to get it downloaded there...pffffttt work computers!

Hi All,

I am completely new to Umbraco, i have installed Umbraco through Microsoft Web Platform installer and was succesfully. I have been able to login to the admin page. i wanted to install the standard website package through the Local Package menu in the Developer section but i got and error message "The file uploaded is not a valid package file, only Nuget packages are supported". is there anything i am doing wrong.

I am using IIS 7 on windows 7

Standard Website is only available for Umbraco 4.x 

It looks like you've installed Umbraco 5.

Cheers

Chris
