Title: Link to content page
Post by: helperbee on July 22, 2015, 06:23:27 PM

I've created content pages. I want to link to those content pages from HTML block, but can't determine the URL.

I'm not duplicating topics.

I'm now working in an HTML Block and want to link text to a Content page, but can't determine the URL for the Content page.

on admin side you can check content_id. It consist of 2 part: {parent_content_id}_{content_id} For ex. content_id = 0_5. So on storefront you should to find this content by url

Code: [Select]

http://your_domain.com/index.php?rt=content/content&content_id=5
best regards

Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place in admin to find the content_id. I've checked the Content Manager and the Categories.

When in Content Manager, I clicked on the content (Getting Started) which I want to determine it's URL.  The address bar displays //your_domain.com/a/index.php?rt=design/content&s=admin123&token=5ccd7c88d98ad2b1a44c8fae2d27cfef#rowNum=10000

It doesn't contain the term content_id.

Again, I'm trying to determine URL so I can build menu based on Category menu which link to external and internal pages. Plus, I need to link from an HTML Block to a Content page.

Thanks for your efforts. I'm still stuck.

Can you provide more details about how to locate the content _id? I'm using AbanteCart 1.2.2 with FoxY template, if that makes a difference.

go to admin menu design->content, choose some content to edit.
i will get URL like this http://your_host/index.php?rt=design/content/update&content_id=0_1....
where 0 - is id of parent content page, 1 - needle.
