Overview
Custom Pages provide an easy way to add custom content to your site. They can be used for any content that is not supplied via your TMG database. Some users add Custom Pages to provide surname histories or place histories, others use them to describe the history of their research project, and there are many other possible uses.
Custom Pages follow the overall look of the site and include the header, footer, navigation menus, and other elements of site pages. You provide the primary content, and Second Site supplies the rest of the page.
Custom Pages are User Items and are added to the site via the User Items Section.
Custom Pages are members of the User Pages Page Set.
Edit Custom Page
The Edit Custom Page window controls the properties associated with a Custom Page.
Title
The Title property sets the title of the Custom Page. The Title will also appear in the menu or on the SubPage where the link to the Custom Page appears.
Filename
The Filename property sets the filename for the Custom Page. Enter the filename only; Second Site determines the filetype based on other program settings. Second Site proposes a filename for new pages; accept that name or provide a more descriptive one.
Main Content
The Main Content textbox controls the text (and HTML) of the main content section of the page. Provide whatever content you wish. In the Edit Custom Page window only a small portion of the Main Content are visible; use the Edit > Open Edit Window... command (or [F7]) to open the Edit Window.
Extra Content
The Extra Content textbox controls the contents of the Extra Content section of the custom page. Provide whatever content you wish. Use the Edit Window to edit long text values.
Unlike most other text properties, you may include script statements in the Main Content and Extra Content textboxes.
HEAD Tags
The HEAD Tags textbox gives you a place to add HTML tags that must be specified within the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags. Use this textbox to add a <STYLE> tag, for example.

If Enabled is checked, Second Site will build the Custom Page the next time you make the site. If Enabled is unchecked, the page will not be created. For more information, see Enabled on the User Items page.
