XFCE-4.4.1.SFS and XFCE-4.4.1.PET for Puppy 3.0+ FINAL
Two things :
First :
You can easly use plugins already compiled for debian ( only merge them to filesystem)
google > search needed plugin
Second :
How to organize the menu ???
Example :
In Internet menu I have some browser, I want an sub menu with into them ... HOW ????

I did some basic testing with Puppy 2.17.1 and the XFCE package caused X to fail. This is probably due to using Slackware 12.0 libraries (newer xorg). Looks like you will have to upgrade Puppy.

P.S. If there is enough interest, I could look into recompiling XFCE for the Puppy 2.X series.

Why oh Why?
Using Puppy 3.01 ....
I've dloaded the pet package 3 times now - each time I try to install I get a message saying that it needs so many zillion blocks and I have less than this. I have increased the personal storage file twice so far - I think the last was 250mb. It still comes back with the blocks message.
What should I do? Newbie here - so simple instructions needed!

this installed beautifully on my Puppy 3.0 system, and I really like it.
But ... Every time it starts I get 5 rxvt windows open (I guess as a result of checking the "save session for future logins" when I first shutdown with 5 open)
How do I stop it remembering the last desktop config? I close all rxvt sessions and ensure the "save" box is unchecked but it makes no difference

I think your sessions cache directory needs to be purged.But ... Every time it starts I get 5 rxvt windows open (I guess as a result of checking the "save session for future logins" when I first shutdown with 5 open)

Delete all the files in the root/.cache/sessions directory (hidden directory) and reboot or restart x. This should clear everything.
.
I don't know if this bug is in this package but is in NOPalpha
create a file make a link to it then delete the original file now when you open the directory with the link thunar crashes....

@cb88 - I could not reproduce this error, must be an NOP problem (my own tests just showed the icon for a dead link)
@floborg - I do not have freememapplet running with my install, will try to look further into it. As for other icons themes, these can be added to /root/.icons and selected from the "User Interface Settings". I was reluctant to add extras as everyone likes something different.

Just tried XFCE sfs method.
Looks nice.
Added also the OOo sfs, but there no entries in the menu nor on the desktop.
Not foreseen in this OOo sfs?
Also I like the system tray vertically in the upper left side.
When doing so, it overlaps the top tray.
Can this be corrected?

Beem,
I use my own OpenOffice 2.3.0 (similar to Barry's, just updated). You may need to usr "Update XFCE menu" in the System area of the menu. (You might also need to Logoff and restart XFCE).
Note: The package only produces icons on the JWM desktop. The easiest way I have found to add icons in XFCE is to go to /usr/share/applications, and drag the wanted ones to the desktop.

Thank you for your advice for OOo.
Update XFCE menus did the trick.
What about the overlapping when the system tray is in the upper left corner?
