well i don't know how come these two lines describe this whole thing,

• Articles: tutorials, articles, quick tips.
• Questions: get help from the community if you’re temporarily
stuck.

1. i tried doing it the orthodox way (creating content type and then creating a view ) but in the middle of creating the CCK field i didn't knew what to do with the vocabulary part? i mean the knowledge type and Category field, i know they use taxonomy but how, do i have to use some other module?

2. and how can i use the Status CCK field, does this requires a module?

3. and where am i supposed to show Add your knowledge or Ask a question!; in a block or where? as i don't have to make it a content profile while creating a content type?

thanks for your time

5. alright i kinda got my way

alright i kinda got my way around it, created a content type first and then in view got everything there with the filter in view.. But now what is the code for providing the link for that in block??? the same code with a little tweaking used for showing the profile link??

P.S for the vocabularies i used taxonomy and then added the terms such as Article, Tutorial and Tips using add terms..

P.P.S how to provide the link like u did where we have "Add your knowledge or Ask a question! "

6. well i am thankful for all

well i am thankful for all the responses that i got, especially Dorien, her two lines were very helpful !!

So even the last problem is solved, for providing link, we only have to use a simple anchor tag in header of View, and link it to the type that we mentioned while creating the content type,, e.g the type of Questions and Articles content type..
