To add a custom page:
Goto Admin -> Custom Pages
Click on "Add New Custom Page"
Enter the name of the page in the form. Note: The name for your page should contain letters, numbers, and the underscore character ONLY.
Enter the title for the page. The page title will also be the text of the link to the page in the page links.
Enter the text of your page.
Click the "Submit" button.
The name you assign to your custom page will be the {NAME_link} variable for you to use in your skins. The script will append "_link" to the name to help prevent naming conflicts with other variables. The title will be the title of the page. For the URL of your custom page, you may use either viewpage.php?id=ID or viewpage.php?page=NAME where ID is the ID number of the page or NAME is the name of the page.
Note: The name for your page should contain letters, numbers, and the underscore character ONLY.
