In website operation, static pages play an indispensable role, they usually carry fixed and infrequently updated core content such as "About Us", "Contact Information", "Privacy Policy", "Service Introduction". Anqi CMS provides two powerful tools for the management and display of these pages: single page list tagspageListAnd single page detail labelpageDetail. These work together to allow you to easily manage the static content of the website, whether it's building navigation, displaying service lists, or presenting detailed corporate introductions, you can do it with ease.
Flexible management of the static page content in the background
First, let's take a look at how to manage static pages on the Anqi CMS backend.The AnQi CMS provides an intuitive and feature-rich interface for managing static pages, you can find it under the 'Page Resources' in the 'Page Management' module.
Here, you can craft each static page with the same meticulous care as you would a regular article.When creating or editing a page, you can set the page name (i.e., the title displayed on the front end), SEO title, keywords, and page description, which are key information for optimizing search engine rankings.The content editor supports rich text editing and also supports Markdown, allowing you to enrich the page layout as needed.
It is particularly worth mentioning the options of "Custom URL" and "Single Page Template".Custom URL allows you to set a friendly, descriptive link address for the page, which is not only beneficial for SEO but also convenient for users to remember and access.And the 'single-page template' gives each static page unique display capabilities.By default, the system will usepage/detail.htmlAs a single-page detail template. But if the "About Us" page needs a special layout, and the "Contact Us" page needs another design, you can specify different template files for them in the background, for examplepage/about.htmlorpage/contact.htmlThe system will intelligently recognize and apply these custom templates. In addition, you can upload Banner images and thumbnails to the page, even adjust their display order.
BypageListTag building page list
When you need to display a series of static pages in a certain area of the website, such as the navigation bar, footer links, or product service overview,pageListTags can really shine. It can retrieve all the static pages you create in the background and present them in a list.
UsepageListVery simple, you just need to define a variable in the template to receive the page list, then throughforLoop through it. For example, you may want to list pages such as 'About Us', 'Terms of Service', and 'Contact Us' in the website footer:
<ul>
{% pageList pages %}
{% for item in pages %}
<li>
<a href="{{ item.Link }}">{{ item.Title }}</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}
{% endpageList %}
</ul>
This code will iterate through all published static pages and display their titles and links. If your website has multi-site management needs,pageListit also supports getting throughsiteIdSpecify the parameter to get the list of pages under a specific site.
Sometimes, you may not want all static pages to be displayed in the list.For example, you may have a "test page" for internal reference, or you may want to exclude a specific page.At this time, you canforuse labels insideifConditional judgment to filter, for example, excluding pages with ID 1:
<ul>
{% pageList pages %}
{% for item in pages %}
{% if item.Id != 1 %} {# 假设ID为1的页面不希望显示 #}
<li>
<a href="{{ item.Link }}">{{ item.Title }}</a>
</li>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% endpageList %}
</ul>
By this means,pageListThe label can flexibly organize and display a collection of static pages according to your needs.
applypageDetailThe label displays page details
When visitors click to enter a static page, you will need topageDetailThe tag is used to accurately display the specific content of this page. This tag can obtain all the details of a single static page, allowing you to display its title, content, images, and other elements on the page.
In most cases, when a user accesses a static page,pageDetailIt will automatically identify the ID or URL alias (token) of the current page and retrieve the corresponding data. This means that you only need to place it in the template file of static pages (such aspage/detail.htmlor custom by youpage/about.htmlInvoke directlypageDetailTo get the information of the current page:
<article>
<h1>{% pageDetail with name="Title" %}</h1>
<div class="page-content">
{# pageDetail的Content字段支持Markdown渲染，通过render=true开启 #}
{%- pageDetail pageContent with name="Content" render=true %}
{{ pageContent|safe }}
</div>
{% pageDetail pageImages with name="Images" %}
{% if pageImages %}
<div class="page-banner">
<img src="{{ pageImages[0] }}" alt="{% pageDetail with name='Title' %}" />
</div>
{% endif %}
</article>
In the above example, we called the page'sTitleash1title,ContentAs the main content of the page (and enabled Markdown rendering,|safeTo prevent content from being escaped, ensuring that HTML code can be parsed normally), as well as the page'sImages(usually used for Banner images) as a background or display.
If you need to get the details of a *specific* page, rather than the page you are currently visiting, you can useidortokenSpecify the parameter explicitly. For example, you may want to display part of the "About Us" page on the homepage:
<section class="about-us-summary">
<h2>{% pageDetail with name="Title" id="5" %}</h2> {# 假设“关于我们”的ID是5 #}
<p>{% pageDetail with name="Description" id="5" %}</p>
<a href="{% pageDetail with name="Link" id="5" %}">了解更多</a>
</section>
By this means,pageDetailThe label can flexibly obtain and display the details of any static page, whether it is the current page or a specified page.
