A..10 Special Pages
The Special Pages Admin Tool is where you can edit and manage the ``special'', or static pages, such as the FAQ and other pages that don't change often or need comments. To use this Admin Tool, you must have the edit_special perm (A.12.17) active for your group.
To edit a special page, first select the desired page from the drop-down box then click the ``Get Page'' button. The fields below will be filled in with the appropriate data.
- Delete this page
- This checkbox, if checked, will cause the page to be deleted when saved. It is only displayed when a page is loaded into the form.
- Page ID
- is a short alphanumeric string used to uniquely identify the special page. This shouldn't have any spaces in it, as it's used primarily in the URL.
- Title
- is the full title of the page, displayed in the page header.
- Description
- is not used anywhere else, and is just to show the admin(s) what the page is for, in a few words.
- Content
- is the special page itself. Any HTML markup may be used here, but full HTML header and footer information isn't required, as the contents of this textarea are inserted into the |CONTENT| special block in a page template.
If the upload_content perm (A.12.42) is set, an upload field appears below the content textarea. If a file name is present in that field, the contents of that file are inserted into the content textarea when the ``Save Page'' button is pressed.
