New page not showing in admin

I have added the <?php include('perch/runtime.php');?> at the top of a page and created the template but the page does not show in the admin. What have I missed?

php code

<?php include('perch/runtime.php');?>

Hi Joanna,

What is the page location in respect to the Perch folder?

Your include at the top will work if the page is in the same directory as the Perch folder.

But if your page is in a sub directory e.g. /contact/index.php it won't work.

In most instances I usually use the following to allow for the page to be in any sub directory (provided Perch is installed in the root)

<?php include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/perch/runtime.php'); ?>

Have you visited the page and were there any errors?

Yes the .php file it is in the root folder and so in the perch folder. I have loaded the php page and there are no errors.

Apologies the page has appeared in the admin panel, it must have been a browser caching issues.

Joanna, were you referring to the editable region - not showing?
