Help! How to create a new custom page in 1.6 ?


Recommended Posts

is there any SIMPLE way to create a custom NEW PAGE in Prestashop 1.6 ?

 

I added a 'title label' to the TOP HORIZONTAL MENU module.

and I made the link as follows: ?controller=page_title

 

on my Front-End, when I click the above title, it goes to the correct address: 

localhost/prestashop/index.php?controller=page_title

 

but its a dead 404 page.

 

i have searched throughout my XAMPP server folders (hosted locally on my computer) and I cant find any place to insert a new file (pertaining to the new page name).

 

I am pretty stuck!

 

the new page I want to create is a background info page,, (i am an Artist)... I want to talk about myself and my experience, etc... and add a pic of myself.

 

is Prestashop able to do this?

I appreciate any answers given to me.

 

I didnt think that creating a NEW INFO PAGE would be so hard   :(

Yes! exactly ;)

a page where I can write about myself and put my photo or something etc...

 

BUT>>>   also:  do I do exactly the SAME process if I want to add 'other' pages to my website?  (ie: how my Paintings are made, packaging and transport info, etc)...  They are all text and photo pages... (no database things).

 

Thanks

  but,, the question is:  How do i do it ?

Thanks, Marc
