How to create a Page node

How to create a Page node

I get this every time I type a url portion:

Please enter a node name/URL portion using a-z, 0-9, _, and - characters only.

Any ideas on why that would happen?

Thanks
 
Hmmmm, if my site is farriersforum.com and I wanted to create a frequently asked questions page like you have here, what would I type in? Nothing seems to be working for me.
 
Add your classes to EXTRA.css or your own custom css template.

Then build the page using the classes.

That's how all of my pages are constructed and it works fine.

I'm using the page node for my landing page. Problem is I don't know where to place my CSS. Placing it in EXTRA.css alters the forum layout.

You can always create a new template and include it from the page template.

For example, you might create a template called "homepage.css", put all the CSS rules in there, and include it in the page's code with:
HTML:
<xen:require css="homepage.css" />

Thank you.
 
Is it possible to suppress some parts of the forum framework for my landing page, such as the footer?

I want to keep the first bar (created separately with html and css) and remove everything below it, starting from "share this page."

If possible, how would that be done?footer.webp
 
How would you add a user avatar on a page node? I try the following
Code:
<xen:avatar user="$user"" size="m"/>
But it doesn't seem to work, do I need to add the user id somewhere or is it a different syntax?

You have to use <img src="link to user avatar">. I do not think the xf syntax will work on page unless you use some PHP callback function.
 
How do I add anchor links within a page please?
I tried
HTML:
<a href="#general">General</a>
and
HTML:
<h3><a name="general">General</a></h3>
But the url under the link is
Code:
http://xf.avforums.com/community/#general
Help!

That's a problem with the base tag

This should work
Code:
<a href="{$requestPaths.requestUri}#general">link</a>
 
Editing pages is an administrator function, done in the ACP.

You would need to make them administrators and give them the ability to manage nodes.

how i can let some of my moderator edit the page i made ! ?!

there is a addon that lets users do WYSIWYG page maintenance. I created a new usergroup and gave that to certain ppl. they do not need to enter via ACP. Page has an edit page button available for them. Search for it in the resource centre.
 
Perhaps a stupid question, but I have just created a page, and it all went to plan...

But!!!

I don't know how to actually access it to look at it! Where can I find a list of the pages I have created and more importantly how do I know the full URL? The page is showing in the Node list, but I have chosen for it to not display as normal, and have no idea how to look at what I have just made.

Help!
