How to create a link on main?

I would like to know how to create a link in the sidebox and link to a static HTML page?

I am using 1.3.8

I would like to know how to create a link in the sidebox and link to a static HTML page?
There are a lot of sideboxes....
Links in general, are straight html anchor text(href)

example:

I want to insert a text link in this particular sidebox, and when onclick on text it will point to a static HTML

any directions on how to do it?

Being that this sidebox is comprised of define pages - Instead of your static html page try entering you page code in one of the define pages like page_2 from the admin > tools > defines page editor

Alternatively, you can use the ezpage sidebox and rename it as you wish "More Info" if you choose, create internal links to the existing pages in the default more info and add additional ezpages for your other pages in the admin > tools > ezpages > insert

When done, you can turn off the original more info sidebox

I have created the ezpages as suggested but how to do I turn it on to show as a sidebox on the site?

admin > tools > layout boxes controller> sideboxes/ezpages.php > set to on, side & order

The page image you posted has the sidebox "red" - enable display of this page in the sidebox so that you see it green and not red

Thanks that got it working, but now there is another thing that I wish to change.

I would like to change the text showing "IMPORTANT LINKS" to "RESOURCES". How do I do that?

Use the developers tool kit to find the defines for that text and the file it is in - then edit a copy of that file for your template

HI,

I am in a slightly different fix.

My eventual site needs to display multi languages and I see many posts on problems associated with EZ-pages not being friendly for languages. So is there another way to create internal linked pages of static information (e.g. about us, company profile, management, cire values, etc...) that comforms to the template layout?

EZ-pages is really an easy way out for most cases. However, I don;t think I can use it given the above consideration.

Please advise!

Thank you so much!!!

Hi,

It's OK. I found the solution. There is a thread on Multi-Language EZ-Pages. There is also a mod to install. However, in the Add-ons search box, I cannot find it after tying it in. Strange???

I found the mod in the same add-on area but through a Google search outsid this website.

I wonder why is this so?

Thanks!
