Ok folks, i've got 1.5 installed and need this manual which is mentioned all over the place.
The only problem is that there's nowhere to either see a manual or download one, this site is so unintuitive when it comes to finding anything.

Please someone, if an Admin Manual for 1.5 actually exists, point me in the right direction

Hi there!
See whether any of these links help:
viewtopic.php?t=47524 is a post in this forum with all the links to very helpful webs
http://www.splendidesign.co.uk/index.ph ... 15-backend is a joomla backend guide, don't know what it's like but it sure looks interesting.
good luck.

Once you login to the admin panel, there is a detailed list on how to admin your site under the help menu in the top left hand menu. http://YOURSITENAME.com/administrator/i ... &task=help

Also here: http://help.joomla.org/content/section/42/278/

but this info is not good for the complete beginner...

Hi,
I am developing a dating site (http://www.date-docs.com) using joomla and I have been looking for a good overview of joomla. I need a manual that will explain the components of it and terms such as modules, components and plugins.
I found this:
http://www.tm4y.co.za/joomla-tutorials/tutorial-1-joomla-overview.html

Can anyone recommend more documentation?
Thanks

That is for Joomla 1.0.x an older version. Start here: http://docs.joomla.org/Beginners
