Dave,

It sounds like many of the issues you are having with specific processors can 
be answered with a combination of mailing list questions and the processor 
documentation. I would also encourage you to read the Getting Started Guide 
[1], User Guide [2], and Admin Guide [3]. They are long, but really offer a 
good overview of the entire system. Once you understand the framework (which 
can be complicated), a lot of the little pieces which can seem weird start to 
fall into place.

There are also a number of good independent blogs (Bryan Bende [4], Pierre 
Villard [5], Matt Burgess [6]) which give step-by-step instructions on various 
topics, and some excellent overview videos on YouTube by Jenn Barnabee [7].
