Static Page in Two Places

caucus · #1 01-15-2009, 06:59 AM

Hello Great Ones

I created a static page and added it to the help menu box and all is good.

I want that same page to show up when the user clicks help and the user goes to the HELP ZONE.

I did follow the link of putting in a warranty page in the help zone and that worked fantastic. However that warranty page does not show up in the help box on the home page.

My question is: Can I create one page and have it show up in two places or do I have to create two pages?

You are BEST to have the same page linked from multiple places (vs. making a new page with duplicate content, which is bad for the search engines).

Just make a link...

Hello

Thanks for the reply

1. I have the warranty link on the help zone page with links of course to the correct page

2. Are you saying: DO NOT MAKE another static page for warranty page. in the help box on the home page?

3. Put a link to the warranty page in the Help box to the warranty page?

4. How did x-cart get contact us in the help box and go to the same page that is in the Help Zone for contact us. Is it only a link?

Hello Great Ones

I got it

1. Create the page first as I did with the warranty page then create a link to the warranty page.

How great is that.

Thanks for all your support and hlep with my problem.

I have a similar, but different question. I have created an embedded static page in my store, but it does not seem to work properly. This static page has an embedded video player on it that otherwise workes in other locations, but does not seem to play the video content when displayed as an embedded page in teh store.

Example: https://www.styleshopusa.com/pages.php?pageid=1

You see the static text, but for the video, there is only the Blue Q for quicktime.

Are there limitation to static pages that would not allow this to work?

Thanks, as I am a newbie at this, and am working in the dark.

Try editing the path to the video. You may need to use a fully qualified path...
