Hi... I would like to create a static page and put a navigational button linking to that page. It is easily done in other CMS like Joomla. But I cannot do it in Pligg.

So far I have been loggin in from front-end as administrator... should I login through any specific page to get more access to the site configuration?

(I think I did that once after the installation, but I lost the url. silly me)

Here's what I've came up with:

PHP Code:

include_once('Smarty.class.php');
$main_smarty = new Smarty;

include('config.php');
include(mnminclude.'html1.php');
include(mnminclude.'link.php');
include(mnminclude.'smartyvariables.php');

// sidebar
$main_smarty = do_sidebar($main_smarty);

// breadcrumbs and page title
$navwhere['text1'] = $main_smarty->get_config_vars('PLIGG_Visual_Breadcrumb_About');
$navwhere['link1'] = getmyurl('about', $dblang);
$main_smarty->assign('navbar_where', $navwhere);

// pagename
define('pagename', 'faq-en'); 
$main_smarty->assign('pagename', pagename);

// show the template
$main_smarty->assign('tpl_center', 'contact');
$main_smarty->display($the_template . '/pligg.tpl');
?>

That works perfectly for my "contact us" page. I can now go to mysite.com/contact.php
Anybody know how can I change the page title?

The title of the page is loaded in the pligg.tpl file in your templates folder with this statement:

<title>{if isset($pretitle)}{$pretitle}{/if}{#PLIGG_Visual_Name#}{if isset($posttitle)}{$posttitle}{/if}</title>

So we are looking for the $posttitle variable.

To assign a title to a page, you have to assign the variable in the block // breadcrumbs and page title.

Example:

You created a "Agreement" page.

The block section // breadcrumbs and page title normally includes the following:

// breadcrumbs and page titles
$navwhere['text1'] = $main_smarty->get_config_vars('PLIGG_Visual_User_Agreement');
$navwhere['link1'] = getmyurl('agreement', '');
$main_smarty->assign('navbar_where', $navwhere);
$main_smarty->assign('posttitle', " / " . $main_smarty->get_config_vars('PLIGG_Visual_User_Agreement'));

Make sure you add this to the /libs/lang.conf (if version is not 9.9.0) or /languages/lang_english.conf (for v9.9.0)

//<SECTION>BREADCRUMBS</SECTION><ADDED>0.73</ADDED>
PLIGG_Visual_User_Agreement = "Agreement"
