How do EZ-Pages work?

**CustomBooks** · 16 Jul 2009, 03:25 PM

Ah, so simply copy one of my existing pages to duplicate the template, edit to create accessory page, and upload to server? Got it! Forget about E-Z pages? When would I use E-Z pages?

Please visit the FAQ/Tutorials section and buy the Zen Cart Manual.

I'm trying to add an ez-page. I read (skimmed) through most of this thread and read the FAQ. In the end, I found and followed these steps...

First, in the admin, go to Tools-> EZ-Pages

Open a new file.

Decide where you want the page to be linked from, in the side boxes, header, footer, etc. and click yes/no button for each.

Put any html content in the big box.

Click 'insert'

Poof! it is done!

Here is a pic of my new ez-page in my Admin...

Can anyone tell me why this new "TESTER" page does not show up in my "More Information" sidebox?

Eternitystore.com

I'm sure I'm just missing a check-box, or a screwed up a template page somewhere!

Thanks!

Hi

It's just a thought, but I see you don't have an internal link, so where is the link supposed to go to?????????

The way I understand it is that the link "TESTER" sould go to the ez-page "TESTER" that I have created. No?

Internal Link URL: If specified, the page content will be ignored and this INTERNAL alternate URL will be used to make the link...

Otherwise an internal link to a different page would take the "TESTER" link to a page other than the "TESTER" ez-page I created.

At least that's the way I'm understanding ez-pages; create a page name, page location and give it some content.

Am I wrong?

Have you turned on the More Information sidebox in Admin/Tools/Layout Boxes Controller?

"create a page name, page location and give it some content."

And it needs a sort order #, but you have that. 0 sort order = off.

Yes. Please link to my site to see it in action.

How about in Admin/Configuration/EZ-Pages Settings, is the sidebox position turned on there?

Sorry, don't see a link to your site. ** Oops...found it. Sorry. **
