Okay, i've read one thread about something similar. But i'm confused on how to make a new page?

I run a Hip Hop site and i'm trying to make a new page for Interviews...

Everytime i make a template and make a module and page it doesn't come up. When i link to where it should be it goes directly to the frontpage.

Can i get some instructions on how to do this stuff? I'd like to be able to creat several new pages that link from my homepage like you do with HTML, but of course, with PHP. The old VBA you could make new pages by making links=whatever... I just never tried doing it.

How do i go about doing this? Do i need to do it in my VB3 admin panel or FTP???

Thanks for any help!

2 ways both very simular

in vBadvanced
select styles & templates
select style manager
on the the style you are currently using select the drop down menu on your style and select add new template
you then get a page to make and edit your template
you select a style if you have that option on vBadvanced i cannot remember
give it a name NOTE in vBadvanced the name should be like this
index_YOURPAGENAME
as far as i am aware any html can go in this area
you then save your template and then add a new page and tell it to use your template
when u call it it will be h**p://yoururl.com/index.php?page=YOURPAGENAME but you dont put index_ in the link

in vBadvanced CMPS
basically the same thing but much more flexible
