Thanks for the update that the Sort Order on EZ-Pages also works as an enable/disable and must have a value in order to show ...

Hello,

I have ez-pages setup but it is not showing up on my frontpage. I have read all of the threads regarding them and set them up exactly to what they have said in the threads. So I believe I have a corrupted file of database somewhere along the line.

What I want to do it reload only the ez-page file and database portion. where do I find all of the files in the 1.3.7v zip file and the what entries in a fresh installed database do i take?

EZ-Pages sits in the ezpages table ...

Hello,

Good afternoon everyone. Thank you ajeh but I'm an idiot. When I kept reading about the sort order needs to be a different number than 0 I thought that you were talking about the ex-pages sidebox in the LayoutBox Controller in the admin>tools. So now I have ez-pages working just fine.

My new question is I want an external link to load within one of the ez-pages I made. So what I did was use a frame tag and posted the html in the editor but when I saved it the frameset html was removed. So my question is how do I get content from this external link to load within the ez-page.

here is the html I used in the ez-page:

<FRAMESET cols="95%">
  <FRAME src="http://www.??????.com/configurator.aspx?Settings=D2025479555555659">
  <NOFRAMES>
      <P>This frameset document contains:
      <UL>
         <LI><A href="contents_of_frame1.html">Some neat contents</A>
         <LI><IMG src="contents_of_frame2.gif" alt="A neat image">
         <LI><A href="contents_of_frame3.html">Some other neat contents</A>
      </UL>
  </NOFRAMES>
</FRAMESET>

what do you suggest

Hi all, i'm wondering if something is possible..

Now i know that it currently isn't possible to add additional ez-page sideboxes, but i would still like to divide up the ez-page sidebox into sections, divided by different headings..

For example :

HEADING 1
- ezpage content link
- ezpage content link
HEADING 2
- ezpage content link
- ezpage content link
HEADING 3
- ezpage content link

etc etc, all in the same box of course.

I think this may be possible by editing the for loop in tpl_ezpages.php, i'm just not sure what to add

I was thinking something along the lines of, if the $box_id is greater than 50, it is under $header2, if its greater than 100, its under $header3 etc etc

and $header2 and 3 are obviously just defined in tpl_ezpages.php as
$header2 = zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'imagename.jpg');
$header3 = zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'imagename2.jpg');

I hope that makes sense, and i hope someone can assist me with it, i think it should be possible, i just have no idea how to create the necessary if statements, and whether or not there are other things i need to take into consideration..

Thanks

Disregard the above question, i've figured it out

I just added a 2nd for loop in tpl_ezpages.php, its probably not the most efficient way to do it, but it works just fine

Hi,
I've gotten the TOC to work & have my ezpages in my sidebox.
What I would like to do is make the ezpages be my FAQ's.
These aren't FAQ's relating to my site etc, but FAQ's for the products I sell & for generel crafting FAQ's, hints & tips etc.
I also want to be able to add proects etc.
This means I will need to be able to add images to my pages every now & again, so where are the images stored for the ezpages & would I ftp them?
I want to be able to have a main page that contains all the questions for that heading as here

http://www.artyfactsforcrafts.com/fa...barrelfaqs.htm

That means I want a list of questions, each being a hyperlink to the answer page, which in turn opens in it's own window.
That's the way my FAQ's off site work at the moment, but I just haven't been able to work out how to replicate it here.
I would be very grateful if someone could help me with this please.
I have ezpages working here:

http://www.artyfactsforcrafts.com/ze...php?main_page=

but that site isn't live at the moment.
Regards
