Quick Start Tutorial

This tutorial will guide you though the creation and management of a Thingamablog powered weblog. Although it only touches on the essentials, it is a good starting point if you’re new to the application and aren’t familiar with all the available options. More detailed information on the topics covered in this tutorial can be found in the Using Thingamablog section of the user guide.

If you aren’t sure about the first two assumptions, please refer back to the Installation and/or Creating a Database sections of the user guide.
