Editing the Template Files

Post by Nottub »

I have used the Wiki guidance on editing the template files to add an additional webpage, however the '/js/setpagedata.js' file has now bee changed and I'm struggling to find where to add a webpage.

If someone could point me in the right direction I'll be most grateful.

The big change was the shift to a separate menu file - js/menu.js

If that is your question just edit that file to add (navigation) for your new page.

Or ... You could play with this ;)

ColingWX, I think thats the bit that has recently changed, I have used that guidance before, doesn't seem to reflect current scripts.


Beteljuice, i'll have a look there it looks like what I want, thanks.

yes in the Announcments of 3.10.3 it already says:
The web page menu system has also evolved, it is now contained in it's own file "menu.js", and the definition is much simplified. If you have customised the menu then in the future I suggest you do not modify the default menu.js, create another copy and alter the filename in setpagedata.js (there is a smapleMenu.js included as well which shows an example of extending the menu system).

And a huge thumbs up from me Mark.

As a complete numpty sometimes, I could follow Beteljuice’s guidance which worked perfectly.
Happy to see the Wiki updated though :D

Thanks again
