Bettina,

I’m not a technical person. I’m a strong user of systems and platforms but I have limitations. Building businesses through marketing and sales are my strengths.

I’m eager to get this new website ready for launch but the statement about content loss is concerning. Particularly since this website will be a daily newspaper focused on small business news and How-To-Articles and the site will produce a tremendous amount of content. With this said I am still having an issue understanding what you mean…

“install a demo with content, then you will lose the previous content and not your articles”.

What previous content, is this demo articles and the images? I am starting anew with no previous website, a brand new domain, and there’s been no previous content. The demo I’ve installed and intend on using is “Talk Town”.

I don’t intend to use the demo content, other than a reference to begin building my site; a visual aid. I intend to recategorize the menu items, recategorize the catagories e.g. lifestyle, weather, etc., and create new articles with new images. Once I’ve populated the website with my own content my plan was to just delete the articles the came with the demo.

My concern, based on the notice in the instructions and now your quoted comment above, is that by “using the demo” content the changes I would make to the menu, and the new content I create and add to the website could be erased upon an uninstall.

If I make changes to the demo menu, can I make these changes without risk of loss sometime later through an uninstall?

And by creating new content as described in the preceding paragraphs, are the added new content and images going to be at jeopardy of loss?

As previously mentioned the website will be backed up daily.

Please try to be more precise in your reply. I appreciate your assistance with this matter. Thank you
