CMS

BackOffice>>Tools>>CMS

CMS was a new features added to Prestashop 1.1. The CMS features makes it easy for store administrators to create new pages using a rich editor.

To add or edit pages go to BackOffice>>Tools>>CMS to load the main CMS screen

If you have any CMS pages created, these will be listed (Image below). Like many parts of Prestashop you can edit or delete existing pages with ease. Within CMS you can also "view page" by clicking the view icon (This will load the page as your visitors would see).

Add New CMS Page

To add a new page click "Add New"

Meta Title: Enter the meta title (Shown is search results pages)
Meta Description: Enter a relevant description (Shown is search results pages)
Meta Keywords: Enter your page relevant keywords
Friendly URL: Enter the friendly URL. This is also the title for your links

Page Content: Add the copy and format as needed (Note in my version there was no ability to add image - You would need to add this via HTML)

If you have multi-languages, clcik the relevant flags and type what copy should be displayed when a user selects that language

Click SAVE

Where are these CMS Pages displayed?

By default, the CMS pages you add are added to the module "footerlinks" and info block. You will need to go to modules>>Footerlinks>>configure to specify if your CMS page should be shown in the footer of your website page and modules>>Info blocks>>configure to specify if your CMS page should be shown in another place, such a sthe left column of your website page.

Tip: Prestashop v1.1 CMS pages are sorted by their ID (Which means the order they are created). There is currently no ability (without editing the database) to change the sort order these pages are displayed in.
