First Look
The page you are viewing is divided into different components. The central part of the page, in which this text is located, is called the page's module space. This is usually the main focus of the display in a Xaraya site. The areas around the module space, such as the menu to the left, or the header and footer of the page, are called blocks.
Xaraya sites are conceptually divided into two areas. The front end or user area is generally visible to anyonymous visitors or registered users of the site. The back end or admin area, is usually only accessible to registered administrators of the site. You can get to the back end from this page by clicking on the [Back end] link to the left.
The front end display can be visually changed by the use of themes to meet the specific requirements of a site. In the (currently active) Default theme, the module space is of alimited width in the center of the screen. For the back end display, not being publicly visible, it is usually convenient to leave the menu inaleft column and have the module space run the full screen width.
