How do I add static content pages to osCMax?

There are four main steps to adding your own custom static content pages to osCMax. Follow the tutorial below to create a static page.

Step 1: Copy shipping.php

First, copy the shipping.php file in your main catalog directory.

Rename the copy to testpage.php. (testpage.php is an example - you should choose a more suitable name for your new page)

Step 2: Edit your new page

In testpage.php, edit the following variables:

FILENAME_SHIPPING –Change to→ FILENAME_TESTPAGE

CONTENT_SHIPPING –Change to→ CONTENT_STATIC

$content_template = TEMPLATENAME_SHIPPING; –Change to→ $content_template = TEMPLATENAME_STATIC;

There are two instances of FILENAME_TESTPAGE and one instance of CONTENT_TESTPAGE and one instance of $content_template

When you have changed all four definitions, save this file.

Step 3: Register the new filename

Open filenames.php which is in your catalog/includes directory and create the following variable definitions:

         define('CONTENT_TESTPAGE', 'testpage');
         define('FILENAME_TESTPAGE', 'testpage.php');

Alternatively the definition format could look like this define('FILENAME_TESTPAGE', TESTPAGE . '.php'); either method is OK.

Save this file.

Step 4: Create the new language file

Copy the file /catalog/includes/languages/english/shipping.php and rename it to testpage.php.

Edit the file /catalog/includes/languages/english/testpage.php to reflect your new page content.

Edit the regions between the inverted commas shown in this example as “New Created Static Page” and “This page tells…” to produce the content you want then save the file.

         define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'New Created Static Page');
         define('HEADING_TITLE', 'New Created Static Page');
         define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'This page tells you how to add a new static page
  to OSCMAX using the Template Structure.');

If you need to return to edit the new page you can find it here /catalog/includes/languages/english/testpage.php

Finished!
