Page Management

Templates

Pages use templates from the Templates module:

pages.php

$template_id = trim($_POST['template_id'] ?? '');
if (!empty($template_id)) {
    $pageData['template_id'] = $template_id;
}

SEO Metadata

pages.php

$pageData = [
    "meta_title" => $meta_title ?: $title,
    "meta_description" => $meta_description,
    // ...
];

Set unique meta titles and descriptions for better search engine optimization.

Publishing Control

pages.php

$is_published = isset($_POST['is_published']) ? true : false;
$pageData['is_published'] = $is_published;

• Published: Page is live on website
• Unpublished: Page is draft/hidden

Exporting Pages

Export published pages to static HTML:

pages.php

if (isset($_POST['export_all'])) {
    $export_path = trim($_POST['export_path_all'] ?? '');
    $pages_response = supabase_get("cms_pages?select=*&is_published=eq.true");
    // Export each page to HTML file
}
