Creating new pages

Regardless of whether you upload via FTP or use your admin panel, you can use any HTML and PHP markup that you choose.


Adding and editing pages in the admin panel

You can easily add custom pages to your site through your admin panel. To do so, login, then browse to “Add new pages”. From there, you can give your page a title, write the content, add option meta keywords and a description, and give your page a parent.

A page parent is the part of the URL you want to see before the actual page name. For example, if you have http://example.com/about/privacy, the parent of privacy.php is the about directory.


Uploading new pages via FTP

Simply open a new file in your favorite text or HTML editor and write your page content. You don't need to add any of the special FMS functions to get the header or footer; all you need to write is what you want to see on that page. When you're finished, save the page as the title of it with a .PHP extension. For example, the file of a page called “Is A Page” could be called is-a-page.php.

In your FTP client, browse to /content/pages and upload the file. The hierarchy of the /content/pages directory is just as you'd see it on your site. If you want to be able to browse to your site at http://example.com/this/is-a-page, upload is-a-page.php to /content/pages/this.

You can add meta data through FTP, too. To do this, create a file called info_name-of-page.php. Inside that file, you can add a title, keywords and a description.

Title: The title of your page Keywords: optional meta keywords, separated, by, commas Description: Optional meta description

The order of the content in info_name-of-page.php doesn't matter; FMS will figure it out on its own.
