- Site settings (Moodle config.php file settings, needs new name, for site/web admin) with above?
- Examples of uses (not how tos)

Comments and notes
--Chris collman 14:47, 30 March 2010 (UTC) not sure about config.php in template. Seems like that directs to a theme or the list of themes. Need to check because I think in 2.0 there were be separate files for header, etc. Perhaps we need "Theme files" with brief descriptions and links to appropriate pages. This is going to be a repeat of some of the Theme basics page, but this will be for more experienced.
Links and lists
Here is some existing data.
