First Time Usage
To start using KSK you must first create a "configuration". KSK supports any number of configurations, each of which can be thought of as a completely different installation. They share no data whatsoever. To create a configuration type:
/ksk createconfig "Configuration Name"
Since this is your first configuration, it will also be the default. You can now use /ksk to access the main window. You can also type /ksk config admin to get to the configuration admin panel.
The first thing you need to decide is whether or not alts are "tethered". If alts are tethered, it means that only 1 entry will appear in any roll lists for a user. All of that user's defined alts will appear underneath that main user, and they all move on the lists as a group. Thus, no matter which toon they are playing, if they move on a list all of their toons move together. If you want each toon to be its own entity and move independently of each other, turn alt tethering off.
Once the configuration has been created, press the "Users" tab at the bottom or type /ksk users. This will display the user editor. You can then either create each user by hand, import guild users by rank, or import missing raid members. When adding users you can assign each user a specific "role". The possible values for the role are "Healer", "Spellcaster", "Melee DPS", "Ranged DPS" and "Tank". It is possible to filter out bids based on which role a user has. If you don't care to do role filtering, leave this as "Not Set" (or you can define the roles for keeping track of who does what and simply not use role filters).
Once you have users defined, you should press the "Lists" button at the bottom or type /ksk lists. This will show you the currently defined lists and the members on each list, in their correct order. Currently this will be empty. Press the "Config" tab at the top to display the list configuration window. At the bottom right are buttons you can use to create, delete, rename lists etc. Once a list has been created, you can change its sort order if you do not want lists to simply be sorted alphabetically (for example, you want the raiders list displayed before the members list). Lists with the lowest numbered sort order will be displayed first, and lists with the same sort order will be sorted alphabetically. If you do not import users from the guild roster, press the "Members" tab at the top, select the list you want to add users to, and press the "Insert" button to insert users into the list.
