Link new pages to a menu item

Hi all,
I have a standard v1.50 installation using a template from Brandon Turpin (thanks Brandon, it's amazing!). I also have a few add-ons but they're not related to what my question is.

There are 2 new menu items (not drop-downs) that I've created, and I'd like to link them to pages that I can edit in the Define Pages Editor in Admin. Alternatively, I can also resort to directly editing the HTML in a file.

I've read how to create new pages and did what (I think) I was supposed to do, but the new pages aren't appearing in the Define Pages Editor list.

Any ideas whatsoever what I'm doing wrong?

Look at https://www.stoorceramics.co.za/store to see what I mean: the new pages are 'Specials' and ''My New Page Menu'.

I'd greatly appreciate any help! :blink:

I'm pretty sure that for the pages to appear in the Define Pages Editor list, the include file needs to be in both the current language directory (e.g. /includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_page_name.php) and in the current template/language directory (e.g. /includes/languages/english/html_includes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/define_page_name.php).

the include file

Thanks - is the include file the one with the HTML text in (the text to appear on the page)?

Is it not maybe easier to create an EZ-Page and then link it to the new menu item? If so, any ideas how to do this?

Thanks again for your help!

Yes, the "include" file (in the html_includes directory) is the one with the HTML text. I've never used EZ-pages, so can't comment on whether that's easier or not.

Yeah, I realized what a stooped question that was as soon as I asked it! Thanks so much for your help - it looks like everything's working now:thumbsup:
