 Hello. I want to purchase another license for an authority site of mine. However, I'd like to keep the same exact URL for some important/trafficked pages. Is it possible to create static dolphin pages (not using the page builder)? If so, how? Thanks! |
Hello. I want to purchase another license for an authority site of mine. However, I'd like to keep the same exact URL for some important/trafficked pages. Is it possible to create static dolphin pages (not using the page builder)? If so, how? Thanks! You would have to expand on the idea but yes, you can have standard html pages. However, if you want the Dolphin menu system then you have to include certain things in the html document. HL posted a standalone Dolphin menu so you can search HoustonLively and standalone menu and probably find it fairly easily. Geeks, making the world a better place |
Thanks! Will take another look for it. I noticed several menu links but get 404 errors. I just found this tutorial on how to make a static web page. Downloaded the small zip file. Not sure if it will work with 7.1.

That is going to create a php file that will output the html page. Now, that uses heredoc; two things that you need to know so you will understand if you get an error message, Find: The two bits in red can not contain any spaces after them; the last bit in red needs to have no spaces in front of it. Edit the file in an editor that creates uft8 encoded files; such as notepad++ or psPad.
That file should be compatible but if you run into an issue just post. Geeks, making the world a better place |
Thanks so much! I really like your suggestion of the standalone menu. I know now what I want (and need) to do. |
Just out of curiosity, what is it that you perceive to be wrong with page builder for your application? My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |

I thought the same thing; you can drag up a html block and put any html code into it. You can assign it a different designbox so that it does not have the header and you can include custom css etc. Geeks, making the world a better place |
I have a usa politics website where I update who is running for office along with their profile (for all 50 states). Updating them in Dreamweaver is fast & easy. For the website as a whole, I'm looking to add many more features (like the debate and opinion mods + the forum mod that Prashank25 is working on). Changing over to Dolphin for this website opens exciting opportunities. |
what about a 301 redirect? so much to do.... |
I'm using 301 redirect for another site I am moving to dolphin (whose pages get traffic but not essential). I'm hesitant to use 301 for these particular pages because I have read statements by Matt Cutts that 301's lose some ranking. I need every ounce of help to stay above my competition in search results for these pages. |

Thanks! Can't wait for PKforum. It's soooo needed. :) |

Changing over to Dolphin for this website opens exciting opportunities. Good reasons for not wanting to mess with page builder. Maybe the attached zip file might help you out. It will allow you to easily add a Dolphin menu to any web page, without having to jump through any hoops like coding the page to suit Dolphin. There are about 10 sample files within on usage. To see it work, just unzip & upload to any subdirectory of your site, and browse to the various php or html files. SimpleMenu.php is the guts of the menu system, and provides a raw list of menu items. All the other files call SimpleMenu.php and provide styling.

houstonlively, that's brilliant. thank you. :) geek_girl told me to look for that standalone menu. couldn't find a working link. much appreciated. |
Your pages that you refer to... are they php, html..... or something else? My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
They are html pages, but I added these lines to my .htaccess file: AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm It allows me to run php & php includes on non-php pages. Simple and effective. |
Cool... that way you won't have to load SimpleMenu.php client side. It'll take a bit of work, but you should be able to get the pages looking pretty close to the rest of the site. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
