The Online Shop Designer Blog

One of the really nice things about the latest version of Prestashop is the included Content Management System (CMS) facilities that allow administrators to create information pages to display content relating to such things as Terms and Conditions or supporting product information.

To add an information page follow these steps:

Step 1: Creating the new information page

• In admin, select the [Tools] tab then click the CMS link.
• Click “Add new”
• Enter the Meta Title, Meta Description and Meta Keywords
  • The ‘Meta Title’ should include keywords that relate to the main page content
  • The ‘Meta Description’ should also contain the keywords, can be longer than the Title, but I suggest you keep it to about twenty words long.
  • Don’t go overboard with the ‘Meta Keywords’. Keep them revelant and do not repeat them. Half a dozen well chosen keywords are usually sufficient.
  • The ‘Friendly URL’ should also contain your main keywords separated by a a dash. e.g: ‘product-selection’
• Use the editor to enter and format the required page content. You can copy and paste text from an Office document if required.
• Click [Save] to record.

Step 2: Enabling your page content for display

• In admin, select the [Modules] tab
• Scroll down to the ‘Blocks – xx modules’ section and click the Info block / configure link.
• The new page you have just created will be displayed. Click the check box next to it and then click [Update} to save.
• Your new page should now be displayed in the Information module of your website.
