ok, so I am playing around with the demo on opensourcecms.com.  So far it looks nice.  However, I am struggling with one thing...how do I add/edit content to a page?  I see the control panel.    I can add pages.  But the pages are all empty.  I can add modules to a page.  I believe this is where the functionality SHOULD be, but I don't see a module for content.  What is the correct module that allows the editor to manage content (title, image, body) on a page?

To add some extra information, I also tried launching a demo site on demo.dotnetnuke.com to see if I could find the missing "content" module.  It LOOKS like a site was created for me, however, I am stuck at the home page.  On the home page, it says the default admins credentials are: admin/dnnadmin.  But I can't log in with that information :(.  I really want to choose this tool, but it isn't easy to evaluate it...I can't even find a good user guide/document that talks about creating pages...

to log  into a site at demo, please use the username/password, you specified on setup.

regarding content: it is added by modules, for static singular content use "Text/HTML", but there are also "Links", "Documents" and "UserDefinedTable" for series of data or feedback form, news(feed), blog, forum etc.

hmmm...I wasn't asked to setup a user/password on setup.  I was already logged in.  I have also tried my normal login, but that hasn't worked either.

Regarding Content: Thanks!  That is what I thought.  For whatever reason, the cmsdemo site doesn't have those modules.  Is there a document or user guide that walks you through building pages?
