Only 1 or 2 pages from a site that are set in CMS made simple?

Post by seecyd »

Is it possible to have only 1 or 2 pages on a website to be set up using CMS made simple? The rest of the site is not touched therefore do not need to be set. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,

The stumbling block is going to be navigation - you'd have to hard code those pages into menumanager. A more elegant approach would be to include them in cmsms but just don't give anyone permission to edit them.
Not getting the answer you need? CMSMS support options

You will probably find out in the future that those other pages need to be edited or updated, too.

As far as only two pages: it depends on where cmsms will be placed on server. Fe, it is very easy to install to a subfolder and point those links to the subfolder cmsms installation.

There are other solutions with cmsms in root directory, htaccess redirects and so on.

You can use cmsms and make 2 pages editable in it then use external link content type to pull the other pages into cmsms menu and they won't be editable in cmcms, you just want to make sure you don't have an index.html in root...
