Description and Message
Hi,

I saw your article in the knowledge base on how to add items to menu. Is there a way I can add a link to a new item (custom page created to match phpbb style) and when I click on the menu item, the portal opens the page in the center column leaving both side columns still there? When I click Portal link, it goes back to main portal layout. I want to add several items to menu that do this almost like a website layout.

I was just about to post the same question. I don't suppose you have a link to your guide in English? Ah well, babblefish here I come!

By the way, is it any more difficult to keep certain blocks when displaying custom pages in the center column? Basically what I want is to only keep the navigation block (main menu block) while the rest changes, otherwise I'd have a pretty squished up center page, hehe. I'm going to try and glean some information from your guide, as a search didn't prove very helpful, and see if I can muddle my way through figuring it out myself, but any advice would be kindly appreciated!

I used Google web page translator. It was still a bit hard to fully understand but better. From what I understand, it won't work so good if I wanted to do 6 or 7 different pages?
