    Please do not be annoyed by my lack of wordpress knowledge. Indeed a lot of people assume certain things are known. I have installed buddypress to my wordpress with a buddypress theme. where is the internal blog and forum? also i activate some plugins and get a shortcode to paste into pages but wheh i have acivated most plugins how do you get them onto your page?

    come onnnnn! directing me to a link gets me nowhere. I am a novice to wordpress and do feel silly asking questions that people assume you would know the answer.
    i managed to install and events calendar and it had what is called a shortcode which you can embed into your pages…i understand this completely.
    The problem on a very basic level in plugins is 1. i install plugins 2. modify plugin category settings etc, once i am happy with this i save it.
    3.what next???i think i was assuming i would get a shotcode to put into page or a new page would be generated with the plugin inside.

    i see that with all plugins you get the files…readme/php etc…..is it a metter of pasting one of these in the page.
    ok please if you have time answer me step by step and not put a referral link. all the other help pages omit this. many thanks
