How do EZ-Pages work?

That's awesome! What a relief! Thanks Ck!

Is it possible to move the login/basket down to where the ezpages header menu is?

Short answer is yes.

I posted this question in another section, but thought I may get a better answer here.

I am trying to add a textarea inside a page that I created using ez-pages. Because the contents of the page are entered within a text box, the closing <textarea> tag is causing major problems for the zen cart admin.

After the first save, I can no longer update the page and anything that comes after the end of the text box shows up on the admin page.

Is there an easy way to embed a text box inside a page without interfering with the admin interface?

pjb923, maybe I'm missing something here, but what's wrong with editing your file outside of Admin (ie: by downloading it, editing it, and re-uploading it)?

I have a problem of my own, too, - namely that I cannot get a simple EZ Pages Table of Contents to work.

Yes, I have read earlier posts and followed the directions exactly and yes, TOC is allowed in the EZ-Pages Settings but... the TOC simply will not build.

I had thought that it was necessary to display the links, or even just one in the header bar (the area I am wanting the change) in order to get the TOC to work because, even though this is not necessary according to Kuroi, nothing will display unless I select header display for one or both of the items I want in a table, and selecting header display for both items literally does display both in the header... as seperate links and not in a TOC...

Idid think that my tpl_header.php may be responsible, but I have since tried replacing that with an original (unmodified) file, but that did not fix the problem and, besides, all my other header links work just fine.

Additionally I checked that the links for both the items I am wanting in the TOC were different (they are).

So now I am completely puzzled and would welcome any suggestions on how to cure this.

It's OK. - I think that I have found the answer:

TOC are created as rows on headers and footers. - Why? - Who knows? - Bearing in mind that that follows the generic header / footer layout makes the use of TOCs for headers / footers completely useless because most people (myself included) are going to want to use TOC in vertical format when using in in headers or footers.

Just found:

You are mistaken. TOC is independent of headers or footers. If you have a fresh install of Zen Cart with demo data, you'll see working examples of EZ-pages with TOC that have only the first part linked to the header-bar.

I'm afraid so. EZ_Pages aren't files that can be downloaded. They're database entries. Since they are entered and maintained via a textarea field, I suspect that pjb923 has hit a limitation of EZ-Pages and would need to build a full page, perhaps by adapting page_2.

Thanks kuroi. I'll try building the page using page_2.
I suppose I could also edit the page from the database using phpMyAdmin, but I like your idea a lot better.
