When adding a new page through the CMPS, you see this option:

Page Template:
This is the template that will replace your "Custom Page Content" module. If you don't wish to have a custom template on this page, simply leave this field blank.

Simply enter in the name of a template there and your page will display the content of that template in that module. ;)

Many Thanks!

But how the custom page is always above the news page? (not order of course) a content page always above dinamic news.?

thanks

You can. It's a little different than adding a normal page though. Just make sure that you have this code at the top of the php file:

define('VBA_PORTAL', true);
define('VBA_PAGE', 'yourpagenamehere');

(Replace yourpagenamehere with the indentifier for the page you're trying to include).

Make sure that you require global.php somewhere below that, and then just use this code at the bottom of the file to print out the page:

eval('$HTML .= "' . fetch_template('YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME_HERE') . '";');
print_portal_output($home, $HTML);
