Hello mates,

I have a question with regards to the static pages feature which if any of you can offer advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

I want to add some tutorials on my site through the static page feature, but my problem is that anytime I add a new static page, it ends up being listed under the HELP section on my homepage www.finerribbon.com.

Is there a way I can stop the link from showing up on the customer storefront?

Thanks in advance for all advice and help.

Good luck!

In the skin1 folder look for the help.tpl file.
Inside that file look for this line:

Code:

{include file="pages_menu.tpl"}

Change it to:
Code:

{*{include file="pages_menu.tpl"}*}

This will prevent the static pages showing up in the help section.

Many thanks for your reply and advice mate.

One question; This mod is going to disable all static pages created so far from showing up, is there a way where we can be selective about it? Meaning choose which page we would like to display and which not?

I'm presuming it's all or none but I'd appreciate your thoughts on this.

Many thanks!

The only way I know is to hard code the links into the help section.

Hello,

With a simple if/then construct you can control which embedded pages appear. e.g.

{if $pages_menu[pg].orderby gt "900"}
<a href="pages.php?pageid={$pages_menu[pg].pageid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$pages_menu[pg].title}</a>
{/if}

Then in your xcart admin static page interface, assign a POS of greater than 900 for any pages you want to appear in that specific menu. Those with a POS of 900 or less will not appear.

Brilliant!

Thank you very much mates.

Thank you for the if statement, I have been looking for something like that for some time now.

Just a clarification, we should add this if statement to the help.tpl file correct?

UPDATE: the statement should be added to the /skin1/pages_menu.tpl - Thanks to hooter for the info
