Is there like an in-depth guide to using this somewhere? On the admin side it only has the options to add individual adjustments, no adding of raids. I cant figure out how to list raids or events without first adding an event, then adding a raid. Only then do I see the option to list raids.

The standings page was not reflecting any DKP until I added a multidkp pool. After I did that, I cannot figure out how to add a raid to the multidkp pool.

I still haven't figured out how to add items when I didn't just freshly add a raid. When I add an item, it doesn't affect the DKP listed in standings under the multidkp pool.

I'm just so lost and now frustrated. I've all but given up on getting the tooltips working for Rift. I'm a few steps away from having to just write my own DKP script from scratch. I just need something that I can keep track of DKP and raids and item drops with. I'm already having to strip it down to get rid of the portal features.

check if you have all permissions first (manage users). there should be a all the "buttons" you are missing, another possibility is, that you deactivated DKP functions in the plus-settings.
in the "global" tab, you have some options do deactivate some of the functions (like raids, whole DKP, item-stuff, etc.)

I do have the buttons for managing raids and such now. The issue I'm still having is getting the values for the standings to update. I had to set a Multidkp pool up to get any values to show. The thing is I can only add events to the mutlidkp pool, not raids.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but...

Event = things like killing a boss, essentially things that reward DKP
Raid = multiple events combined to give the total amount, such as 4 boss kills + time spent in raid. Also the subtractions for item purchases.

MultiDKP Pool = the actual pool that tracks the DKP to keep track of standings? If so, why can I only add Events to the multidkp pool, not the raids themselves....

I feel like I'm getting closer to figuring this all out, but just not quite there yet.

no you misunderstood the event: event usually is a zone, or instance. there is no real possibility to enter bosskills into the database, except as note for the raid, separated by commata, or something similar.
so you create an event for an instance.
then you create a raid, select that event, and set the value of the raid to x ... every person attending the raid gains then x DKP in every pool, the event is assigned to
