Setting the pages

Introduction

The pages are created via "Pages" section in the documentation. If you are absolutely new to Wordpress, please check the Total newbies section of the documentation when you can watch various screencasts including creation of pages in Wordpress. Note that once the page is created, it should be added to menu via Appearance => Menus if you'd like it to appear in the navigation on website frontend. The rest of this section is devoted to page templates available within the theme and the custom options provided.

Page options

A number of custom options is available for any page created. Once you are in a specific page in admin panel, scroll down until you see the custom options block illustrated in Screenshot 8. We will go through options one by one:

Sidebars can be created via "Sidebars" section in admin panel (Construct => General settings => Sidebars). More information on creating sidebars is available in Sidebars / Widgets section of the documentation.
