Hi knight_oWL,

Unless I'm not understanding, once your php code is on your page you need only to change the extension from html to php.

The code for converting the full record detail page to php is in step 2 near the bottom of the generated code

And yes, you only have to paste the code once.

I'm assuming that you've entered some test records into your section, so that your test page will be populated with some text pulled from your records. ( http://www.lipsum.com/ is a great source of placeholder text )

If you're unsure of how to set up your pages, start by copying the entire page from the code generator to a new document and save it as something like blogtest..php (the important part is the ,php)

There's also a detailed getting started guide in my CMSB Cookbook http://www.thecmsbcookbook.com that should clear up a lot of the 'mystery' surrounding the converting of html pages to php.

Hope that helps to set you in the right direction,

Jerry Kornbluth

Thanks Jerry,

I will look more closely at this and give it a go.  I understand how to convert the pages, I just didn't see the header code for the full record page.  maybe I missed it.

also, any thoughts on the pagination code?
