Help with the template on my page

[msshai]

Hello. My name is Shai and I am a newbie (I understand much of HTML and CSS through what I have read on W3school etc). I am currently using CMSMS version 1.11.4. I recently purchased a template from a website called ThemeForest. The theme I have is in CSS3/HTML5 but now that I have this zip file, I honestly have no idea how to get it together on my page. It is broken down into MANY separate files (the CSS folder alone has 12 CSS files). I have gotten as far as changing the look of my page by creating a separate theme but the Jquery isn't working. Here is what it is supposed to look like " http://themeforest.net/item/hawaii-attr ... ew/2522434 "
and my page http://www.sisters-inspirit.org (I haven't adjusted the wording as of yet so all the default pages are there).
I'm really becoming frustrated on how to proceed and get this wonderful template onto my page. Can someone please assist me here?

Start with the cmsms docs: http://docs.cmsmadesimple.org/

Choose 'layout' from the left menu and try to understand the examples.

css files should be added in cms. Javascript files should be added to the filesystem (e.g. uploads/template/js) and then linked from the template; eg:

Code: Select all

<__script__ src="{uploads_url}/template/js/superfish.js" type="text/javascript"></__script>

It's really not that hard to convert a template to cmsms. However, the first time you need to invest some extra time. And of course you don't know all the posibilities within a minute. CMSMS offers a lot of modules and built-in tags.

A slightly old version of CMSMS but the principles are exactly the same.
