Hi Clear Team,
Please can you tell me where to find all the documentation on this site (Installation guides, user guides and so on) I am really struggling to find stuff on this site. Many old links redirect to here so they don't help either. I finally found some installation guides under Partners (why?), but no application guides such as for the Storage Manager nor the HowTo's. I bumped into some HowTo's, I think, but I cant find them again.
Also one documentation link I found does not mention 6.6.
Can I suggest you try sitting someone new at a terminal and ask them to try finding information on the site and watch how they get on? I don't think I'm stupid (degree qualified engineer and so on) but I'm really struggling.
BTW, I've ticked the box to mark the post as private so only Mods can view and reply to it.
Regards,
Nick

Bother. It looks like I've lost my Mod privileges again so I can't even see my own post. It is only because I still have it open that I know it is there.

Nick. We had to merge content together from both sites and are still in the process of cleaning up some things.
All of the content is now located in /content:en_us:name_of_article
We had to flatten all of the content so all English content will be there and namespace has been made for other languages.
The indexes are all being rewritten to read from the 'keywords' section at the bottom of each article to help eventually improve the indexing of articles. For a comprehensive list of all articles on the site in no particular order (the good, the bad, the ugly, the messy, and the unsorted), please check here.

@Ed, Thanks. One of your links is the same as mine and another is the Partner Resources > Guides page from another link.
@Dave, This web site is your basic shop front. Surely documentation links such as the basic installation apps should have been there before the site went live and that was months ago. New users come along and see great promises, download and install ClearOS, then what? Where can they currently go to find a description of the apps they need and how they work. This big bump was after a poster did just that after using WHS and started asking about mail because he could not find anything, and I am not surprised! If it were my organisation I'd be having very serious words with whoever was responsible for this new website. The forum is still pants. I am typing at the bottom of this thread answering a post at the top and so on. It is not a good store front. -

BIG BUMP
Please, guys? There is still a lot of documentation missing from the old site such as this and the how-to's in the old community section. It is really important to get this sorted. The one bit of documentation which is easy to find from the Resources menu is hopeless. In the mail section it does not mention most of the elements you need to get a functioning mail server.
