New Page Creation

blogods

I want to create a bunch of new simple pages without any forms, just some text. I've tried to copy some code from other pages and apply them but it's a bit confusing. Exactly what and how many files should I create and what the code should be? By the way, I use Vanilla 0.9.2 (if it's necessary)

Have you checked out the pagemanager extension? (link on the Documentation wiki) It allows you to create new pages and their respective tabs and stuff. Give it a shot.

Yes, I've tried the plugin but it creates tab which are at the top of the page but I need to create pages which are at the bottom like "about", etc.

Are you talking about the links at the bottom of 0.9.2.x, like 'Feeds,' Terms,' etc.? If so, I'm afraid those are hard-coded into the script, so if you want to add a link down there you're going to have to do it manually.

Yes, that's what I ment: links at the bottom like "Feed" and stuff. So the question was who to "do it manually"? What actuall steps should I make?

Does anyone know?

In controls/Common.Controls.php, around line 300.

Seems like the Pagemanager extension link is down. Can anyone upload their copy and link it here? I am working on customizing my install of vanilla, and this would be super helpful right about now.

Anyone?

I believe the extension is currently having difficulties but i could be wrong..

http://rapidshare.de/files/13426270/PageMng_test.php.html Should be the right one (ignore the _test part of the file name, not intentionally there). You might have trouble getting it to work, though, a lot of people've had (seemingly spontaneous) problems with it, and I'm afraid I really haven't the faintest idea why.
