blank page

[izzlik]

hey! i se plugins like static pages that put an page link on the side of you blogg with static pages etc but is there a plugin almost the same but to generate blank pages ? like if i want to to have a row of links to let's say "story" "info" etc and on those pages i can write my lifes story.... or maybe there is someting in Serendipity already like this and im majorly blind XD

Hi!

If you want to create completely blank pages, why don't you just write a HTML page and upload it to the server via FTP?

Not sure I understand what you mean that the Static Page plugin can't offer?

ok, what i meant was

1 you know the fronpage where your blog entries is posted ? a blank page like that with the normal plugins on the side etc but in the middle you can write about yourself or anyting like that people can view.

2 for example a plugin that create a page, if you install and insert the plugin and then choose to add a page you name that page "bio" and a new page is created in /serendipoty/bio.php and on the plugin on the sidebar it show the page you created, it's name and a link to it. and on bio should be whati wrote above on 1.

Hi!

Ah, yes. That you can solve using the Serendipity "Static Page" plugin!

It also has a sidebar plugin which can list your written static pages.

sweet! thanks but now i have another problem.. i downloaded the plugin and put it in the plugin folder but as i after that go into the admin option to load it, it wont show up i uploaded it three times and once from another computer :/

Hi!

Don't only upload it, you also need to go to the Plugin configuration manager inside Serendipity and install the plugin there from the list of event plugins and sidebar plugins

i solved it apparently my ftp program corrupted them, dont know how, had to install flashfxp insteed

anyhow now that i added the plugin and sidebar i made a static page called "test" but as it's added it dosent show up in the sidebar of static pages on http://sjödin.orh

Hi!

Static pages only get listed if you check the option "Display in page-navigation" of that static page, and if that test-page is saved as "PUBLISH" and not as "DRAFT"...
