Creating a new page dynamically...

Hi - I've been using CMS on several projects, but now I have one where the client wants to be able to create new pages and link them - can this be done with CMS Builder?

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim,

Absolutely! You'll want to use a Multi Record section for this.

While there are many ways to set this up, the simplest is to set up both a List viewer page and a Detail viewer page. When your client adds a new record, a new link will appear on your List page. Your Detail page will handle all the links from your List page, mimicking an entirely separate page for each record.

I hope this answers your question. Please let us know if you had something else in mind.
All the best,
Chris

Hi Chris,



..ok that sounds good - I was wondering whether I'd be better off getting the Article Manager? But you reckon CMS can do it ok, that's great.
Basically the site will have a list of Clubs, then if people want to set up another local club, it will be added to the list page, and link to a new page which will have all the various club details and maybe pictures. Sound feasible?



thanks
Jim

Hi Jim,

You'll definitely have a lot more flexibility with CMS Builder.

As long as the people setting up clubs will be doing so with pre-arranged usernames and passwords, yes this is completely possible.
All the best,
Chris
