Re: Re: Suggestions for what to study first (PHP, CSS, ?)
What do you want to change, specifically? If it involves getting other forum data from the database than Tiki gets normally, you'll need to know PHP and sql handling of database queries. If it's just a question of layout, maybe CSS alone will do it. Especially in current Tiki versions, CSS can manipulate the layout quite a bit. If the layout changes are more extensive than CSS alone can handle, you'll need to know Smarty template syntax and PHP. But again if you describe what you want to do, that'd narrow down the possibilities a lot.
