Embbed and root pages difference?
 

Hello every one,

I have read the manual but it did not help at all.
If some one can help me and point out the difference, purpose and how to use the 2 different types of static pages?

Thank you in advace.

Kind regards,
Ricky

Root pages will be added to the root of your xcart directory, and will not show up under the help menu. Embeded pages are added to your skin1 directory and all are added under the help menu.

Boomer,

Thank you for the info. But how do I display a root statict page in the middle section of the cart?

Kind regards,
Ricky

You would need to use the embeded pages to do such, that is another point as root pages are seperate to the x-cart layout.

Which brings me to ponder....

Why would X-Cart have a root page feature? Anyone who can create an HTML page, would surely be able to upload it for themselves.

It's not like Qualitynoteam had the forsight to include a WYSIWYG editor or anything.

Just more confused features added from user paid-for modifications. Features added that are incomplete, under developed or full of bugs.

RRRRRRGGGGGGHHHH &@#$ $%*! :-# ](*,)

Well let me post this then. I was looking into bring some HTML pages that I created for links and link to us.

How do you guy go about display the HTML pages in the middle colunm of the cart?

Do you guy go and create the txt variables and load the HTML into the variable?
How about is there is several pages?
Do you create several txt variables?

Thank you for all the help

Kind regards,
Ricky

Do you mean something like this?
http://www.wahmboutique.com/boutique/customer/pages.php?pageid=20

this page is made by linking 5 embedded pages together. The links to the embedded page do not show in my help menu.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

You created 5 lng.txt variables and populate them with the information you need to display?

When you put all 5 together did you use a templete to do it? If, so would you kindly show me an example?


Thank you so much in advance.

Kind regards,
Ricky

Hmm...no, I created 5 embedded static pages with my html code.

Only the first page of information is linked from my main page (top right corner) and the rest are hyperlinked between each other.

Does that make sense? I'm not an expert by any means :)
