How do I add a new page (about) to the directory

[Yodaya]

Hi guys,

I tried to add an about page to my directory http://www.all-blogs.net but could not get it to work.

Could somebody tell me how to do it?

Thx in advance for your help!

Cheers

If you know basic HTML, just create the page using the editor of your choice and upload it to the root folder of your directory. Then add a link to that page in either templates\header.tpl or templates\footer.tpl or templates\top_bar.tpl.

Here is the format I would recommend. If you need any help, let me know.

Content visible to registered users only.

Hi Casey,

thx for the code!

It works but I have one little problem if you have a look at the site and go on the about page the blue bar is much smaller than on the other pages....


I believe that the blue bars values are defined in the main.css file? but if I make any changes to that it is applied to the whole site isn't it ?

Thx

Hi Yodaya,

Open up the main.css and find

Content visible to registered users only.

And simply add height: 30px; so it'll look like this.

Content visible to registered users only.


Let me know if that makes ya happy :)

later

Do be aware that setting a pixel height in css on the navbar could cause problems if the person viewing the page has their browser font set to a large size. You can test this yourself in FF and Netscape (view/text size/increase- I suggest three times on this) and in IE6 (view/text size/largest). Opera scales everything so is the one you have to worry about least.

It's usually best not to set a height, and let the content do it for you OR use a relative size for height, such as ems.

OOPS! Forgot to say, Ap0s7le, that the add-in for pages is a very cool thing. THANKS!
