Adding a New Page

I have added an new page in my pages section called Blank Page. This page has 2 Regions, one for a single image and one for some text which is dispalyed underneath.

I need to the client to be able to create a series of simple one off web pages using this page as a template.

When I click on add page, I can't work out what information I need to input in order to make a new web page which will sit directly in the root folder.

Any help would be gratefully received...

Cheers Paul

When you click on Master Pages, do you see your page listed?

Yes I can.

When I go to the Listing pages area and add a page I then select my master page and key in a title.

I then receive this error:

Folder is not writable: /var/sites/w/

Sorry, that page could not be created.

Is that folder writable by PHP?

I don't even know where it is?!!

In your perch/config/config.php file, find the line for PERCH_LOGINPATH
