Custom Content Page Module?

[apokalupsis]

What exactly is it? I accidentally deleted it a while back. Do I need it? I've been running w/o it...but perhaps it serves an important purpose? Was it just a place holder?

If I should have it, how can I get it back? What is the code for it? Like I said, I deleted it. I've looked through the install files, can't find anything for it.

That is used when you add pages that use a specific template (Please read the User's Manual available in the Member's Area here for more info).
To add it back, run this query:

INSERT INTO adv_modules (title, identifier, filename, inctype, modcol, displayorder, templatelist, userperms, active) VALUES ('Custom Page Content', 'custompage', '', 2, 1, 1, '', '', 1);

what query do I use to remove the custom content modules? For some reason I seem to have 2, and neither work, so I want to delete them both and add one back in using the above query and see if that works.

Your best bet would probably be to go in through phpMyAdmin and delete them from the 'adv_modules' table if you're unable to delete them in the admin cp.

so if I drop all of the adv_modules tables I won't lose anything that that query won't bring back, right? just checking since it is running great other than that, and I have NO IDEA how 2 custom content pages ended up in there. I did a search here to find the answer and found this 6 month old post to reply to since it seemed to apply. Thanks for your help. Please let me know if it is OK to drop ALL of the the adv_modules tables in phpMyadmin, and then add them back witht his query since this is on my live site I want to make sure...

[Brian]

No, you do not want to drop all of them. Just browse through the table and find one that has 'custompage' in the 'identifier' column.

thanks! that did the trick - all I knew how to do in phpMyadmin before was run mass sql queries, so now I learned something new, as well! thanks again :)
