Creating a new page in Edge

To throw some more info into the works...

Be aware that you can make pages outside of the normal structure, for an example take a look at the set_password page...if you have it turned on.

(we're getting a little off topic here, but ...)

The 'Information Pages' add-on works (I have it on one of my sites). It allows you to quickly and easily add new pages, and even edit them quickly and easily from anywhere (assuming you can log into your Admin side of your shop). That said ...

1) You now know how to create a new page by yourself, and add links to it. This experience is valuable.

2) As I pointed out in my reply above, it looks like the add-on needs to be updated to the current coding style (for the reasons listed above).

3) The Information Pages add-on stores all of the text for the new pages in the database, instead of in a language file. There are a couple of gotchas you need to be aware of if you are using any special characters in your text.

4) There's a search add-on (that I particularly like) that allows you to have your customers search your site not only for part names and part numbers, but also search for words or phrases across all of the pages of your site (wouldn't you like your customers to be able to search for a word or phrase, and have them find it on your FAQ page?). Unfortunately, this search add-on can not search pages created and stored by Information Pages.

Like I said, I've used Information Pages on one of my sites. But, I won't use it again for any new sites, and if I update that old site, I'd most likely remove it.

fwiw

Hi All,

I have the information Pages SEO installed on my Bootstrap Oscommerce Edge.

BUT the pages that I create do not appear in the footer, nor anywhere else.

Can some-one please help me?

Many thank kind regards

Gerry

Problem solved gentlemen, it seems the install instructions was not complete. I got it to work now by updating the

catalog/includes/modules/content/footer/cm_footer_account.php

and 

catalog/includes/modules/boxes/templates/information.php files

Kind regards
