MOFCart Docs / Customizing / Where Are The Customizing Areas ?

The Customizing docs are meant to be a Road map to where the various places are that can be easily customized. This part of the docs is not meant to be a tutorial for those who are not familiar with messing around in a Perl Script file. You should already be pretty familiar with that before attempting any of the customizing.

Always keep good backups, and once something is customized and operating as you want, then renew your backups from the server. If you have custom mods for the MOFcart files on your server, then Do Not use program files from the MOF distribution packages. This is common sense, but beginners don't think of that.
