Problems with embedded Pages

Post by Jaws »

Hi folks,

I guess that question has been asked before, but I couldnt find any matching ones here.

I just installed the bex01 template (which is great) and it offers me some menu-buttons in the banner right in the top of my Blog.

Of course I want to point the "About" Button to a about.php for example. If I change the index.tpl so it will open the about.php by clicking on it - it will be displayed - but not embedded into my blog.

So i turned on the embed function and read through several documentations - but I couldnt figured out how to display an external page in my blog.

Can someone help me?

Hi!

To show external pages embedded into your design, you can use the "Static Page" plugin. Then you can use URLs like "index.php?/pages/about.html" to see your static pages.

Another way to embed foreign pages into your "design" is to use the "iframe / WrapURL" plugin. Or you create your own custom PHP plugin. :)
