XF 2.3 How do you delete one page from an article?

[bennylava]

I made a new node, and it can only contain article type threads. Any new thread results in becoming page 1, while the previous post (Article) gets pushed back to become page 2. I would like to:

1. Delete the 2nd page of the article so there is only one page. This is my "mission statement" tab, and I only need one page there permanently.

2. Be able to post a picture in the mission statement, that is small and off to the right. Is this possible? If so is this done by using C-Panel?

Thank you

Bump -

Is there no edit button for the administrators when you need to edit an article? Even users can edit threads from the user interface but Admins can't edit their articles that way.

EDIT:

Not sure what is going on. Kind of frustrating, edit buttons have appeared as if by magic. Have to find out why.

Since I'm at it, I may as well ask - Is there any way to get the text into columns for Articles? So that it would look like a magazine or an old newspaper.

"Why would I want columns in posts?" I hear you ask.

Well, given that with xenForo 2.2 we have article threads, some people might like their articles to look more magazine like.

"Why can't I just use tables"

Because with columns, as you add to or edit the text it flows from one column to the next. Plus, you can very simply make the columns responsive and work well on any browser width or device.

The bbcode is very simple, and in...

Thanks! Do you think I would be able to place a picture down in the columns, like you see here?

You’d have to try it and do how it works responsively on different widths. The text can flow nicely but obviously not so easy with an image, especially a tall one of portrait.

So just try posting the imageshack link right where I want it to appear? Sorry I'm something of a newb to all this.

Yes. It will generally work fine at the beginning of the columns, but when you actually try it you will see if there are any issues.
