General options page

[lucas]

Hey everyone,

Is it possible to create a general "theme" options page in the panel? For example, a page with general website settings like social network accounts, contact info etc. So we can easily add or edit these settings.

Thanks!

Yes,

create a New Template called "optionspage"

create New Fields named like the Option you want.

Assign Those Fields to the New Template.

Create a New Page and assign the created Template to it.

There you go.

I Lucas, I do this in my tutorial.

http://wiki.processwire.com/index.php/Basic_Website_Tutorial

It shows you how to create the fields, template and page, and then how to integrate that into your site.

On a site I am working on at the moment, I have even included things like banner background colours, blocks, meta data, and tons of SEO useful stuff .
