Hi Steve,
I want to add a FAQ page to the site. This page should inherit the the Global_Header and the Fineprint footer but no other parts of the project.
In fact, I will need a couple of this type of page.

How do I do that? I thought it would be really simple, but I have spent days on it now.
I would be very grateful for some help.
I hope you had a nice Christmas and wish you a happy and prosperous New Year
Regards,
Tony

Hi Anthony,

What you need to do is create a custom action. This comprises 2 parts.

1. Add the action to the actions.ini file.
Code: Select all
[faq]
    template=faq.html


2. Add template for your action to the templates directory.
i.e. templates/faq.html

If you want it to inherit the header and footer, you would do the following in faq.html :
Code: Select all
{use_macro file="Dataface_Main_Template.html"}
{fill_slot name="main_column"}

... Your stuff here ...

{/fill_slot}
{/use_macro}



Best regards

Steve
