@ejshculz. Ok, don’t panic. Let’s do this step by step. First of all, If you’re using Joomla 1.6, go to the Plugin Manager, and look for the plugin named, “Content – Load Modules”. Make sure that’s enabled. That is a built-in Joomla plugin. So, it comes pre-installed with Joomla.
Second, go to the Module Manager, go into the settings for Easy Folder Listing. On the left and side, you will see “Position *”, and next to that a textbox, and a button with the label “Select position”. Do not press the button. Type an arbitrary position (for example, x_test1) directly into the textbox. See screenshot: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5XVX41IX
Lastly, type {loadposition x_test1} in the article that you want to show it in.
This should sort you out. Let me know how it turns out.
