    Default Re: making new pages, links etc..(please help, have scoured!)

    arumdrum,

    Why didn't ezpages work for you?

    I would simply create a new ezpage called News & Events.
    Make sure you turn on the ezpages sidebox under Tools -> Layout Boxes.
    Then notice the new ezpages sidebox on the main site. Copy or note the link to "News & Events"

    Then drop a link in the header:
    Home| New Shop| Blog| Contact Us| Log In | News & Events | etc.
    and just hard link it to the new ezpage url...

    Works for me... very easy.

    no idea TBH. I just tried again following the steps you mentioned but couldn't see any changes..

    perhaps I am missing something that should be really obvious?

    help question Re: making new pages, links etc..(please help, have scoured!)

    Hi!

    Similarly, I have a size guide page for my products and I want a link to this page listed in the information menu, instead of the important links menu where ezpages usually go.

    I really don't want a sidebox just for this one link.

    I hunted down all of the 'shippinginfo' files and created a comparable 'size_guide' file.

    The link tries to go to the correct URL, but I end up with 404 page.
    I've done everything I can think of to define a new defined page.
    The link just isn't finding the page.

    Does anyone have a procedure list to acocmplish this.
    Eureka, procedure lists are just what we need.

    thanks,
    Zinfandel wants good grapes.

    Nice looking site ...

    However ... I cannot figure out how to navigate it so I packed up my credit card and went home ...

    Consider when in the product info pages turning on the navigation between products ...

    I finally find the Downhill Bikes but get lost on how to get to the next bike as there isn't a next bike unless I know to go back to the categories menu and find the listing and find the product and figure out what I have and haven't seen ...

    Ajeh, thanks for the feedback, sounds bad!

    I will look into what you suggested RE: next product buttons, is this something that can be easily turned on? having not set up the site from scratch it has been and continues to be a very steep learning curve for me.

    You might peek at the Configuration ... Product Info ...
    Previous Next - Navigation Bar Position
    Location of Previous/Next Navigation Bar
    0= off
    1= Top of Page
    2= Bottom of Page
    3= Both Top and Bottom of Page

    Zinfandel, I managed to find an about us addon somewhere on here (lost the link now but shouldn't be hard to find) with instructions on how to add a page... was very helpful.
