Can I get more documentation on how to implement templates properly. So far i
managed to make a custom template (.ss file) and .php that extends SiteTree and
ContentController. Later i had to alter db to add this class properly to the sistem.
Is there a way to add this class to the DB via some action from Admin interface?

Visit (site-root)/db/build and your database will be automatically updated. This is one of the key features of the system, sorry for not documenting it better! :)
I've added this page - http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=db-build - and put a link to it from the getting started page.

It's goot that this script exists...Maulaly changing stuff is not fun when adding more templates (well is not that hard either :))
I think it should be available somewhere in Admin interface...
