How to edit a custom template left menu

[jackyboy]

The Dotcomwebdesign template I am using shows:

How to create a page
How to delete a page
News1
News2
News3
etc.

I would like to change these page links and their content to something else such as About Us, Photo Gallery, Contact Us, etc

When I click on News1, for example, and edit it in the Editor to "About Us", save it and click Normal View, I don't see the edits. In fact the News1 totally disappears. In the Edit mode, I can see it all on the left nav.

My dev site is here: http://andrewsontheweb.com/sunbelt

How is this done? Surely there is documentation on this, right?

I received an answer from the developer: on some pages, such as News1, News2 or whatever, you see #CMSimple hide# which hides these pages from the menu in Normal View, but keeps them visible in the Edit Mode. Delete it to reword the H1 and show the page link in the menu.

Wery probably the pages like News1, News2 etc. are hidden in menu and are shown only in particular Newsboxes out of main content. Look in your template.htm for e.g.

Code: Select all

<?php echo newsbox('News1');?>

If you delete this part in your template and also delete the code

Code: Select all

#cmsimple hide#

on the News1 page, the page name appears in the menu.
