My 2 cents to new CP users - I'll teach you to fish

I offer this helpful advice gleened from HOURS of reading this forum.

I see most ? are "where is x file?" or what file controls y?


To make your life easier w/ cp:

1) download fire fox and install fire bug

2) Fire bugs "inspect element" is your new best friend.

3) click area of page / element that is your concern. It will show in bottom, box.

4) copy the name of element cntrl c and use your pc search to search that element name in the cp folder.

5) A list of files referencing that term will appear for you to edit as you like.

I hope the above helps new users save time and angst.
