1. Yes. You can move/add these in the skin's files. The wiki talks about that kind of stuff. Particularly the header.tpl or footer.tpl pages would be most useful since that's where those are usually found. It's the {skinchange_content} and I don't remember if it's {rss} or {xml} (the first, I think).

2. For instructions on how to change the site menu, see here: https://efiction.org/wiki/index.php5?title=How_to_change_the_site_menu

3. "That action was successful." can be found in languages/en.php. I wouldn't suggest changing it, though, because that same message probably appears all over the place. You could find which .php file selects that to be used (probably one of the ones in the user folder), name it something else (like _SIGNUPMSG or whatever you want to call it), then add it to the language file.

I'm also interested in changing the text "This action was successful" when someone registers. 

I know very little about PHP and am new to efiction. I do know a little HTML though. I couldn't find in the Users.php file where this action is.

If someone could copy and past the exact lines of text to change and where they are found, I would appreciate it.

So if you look at the end of the URL for the registration pgae, user.php?action=register, it tells you where to look. Typically, with URL with user.php and something tacked on, the file you're looking for is in the user folder. The file you're looking for is named after the action, in this case, user/register.php. Opening that file shows that it only consists of an include to user/editbio.php.  You also need to open languages/en.php.

I searched for "That action was successful." in en.php and found that it's actually at the very top of the list, and I need to look in editbio.php for _ACTIONSUCCESSFUL. It appears twice. Like I said in the previous post, this is a message used all over the place, so you don't want to change it in en.php.

I would change the instance of it at line 113 to something else. Maybe _SIGNUPMSG like I suggested before. Then add _SIGNUPMSG to en.php. You may also want to change it at line 153. I think that's for editing bios, though.

That was awesome! 

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. It was really easy to change once I knew where to look.

Glad I could help. The explanation was a little long, but I was trying to give you an idea of how it works instead of just telling you what to change.
