EZ Pages - file location?

Hi folks,

Could anyone point me to the location of the EZ pages source, so I can work on the files through FTP?

Cheers,

Bert :D

The content of EZPages is held in the database, if that's what you mean.

Re: EZ Pages - file location?

EZ pages are constructed and edited in admin>Tools>EZ-Pages and stored (unlike define pages) in the database.

As I understand it (and please correct me if I am wrong) EZ pages can only be worked on by editing them in admin as per above.

You could go through the trouble and locate them in your DB and then make your changes there ..... good luck

Is there any reason that you want to use FTP ?? :wacko:

Re: EZ Pages - file location?

Oh! How strange, so EZ pages are not actually pages, but representations of tables in the DB?

So there are no .php/.htm files etc to edit? I was looking to work on my EZ pages in a proper editor and add in some php scripting...

That is the nature of ZC (or any database driven website) in general: pages are being constructed from database entries 'on the fly'. You click a link and there is a new page. You click on another link and the previously displayed page evaporates into nowhere's land - and then a new page is constructed.

Install a proper editor like CKEditor and you should be right.

Alternatively you can construct your EZ page in some good old-fashioned html editor and then copy the code into the source of your EZ page - if you prefer to do that.

You can't (without considerable effort) use PHP in EZPages.
