Time for action – creating the article

Let's use the CMS to create your first article on PrestaShop.

1. Hover over the Preferences tab and then click on CMS.

2. Click on the first green button, Add new, in CMS Categories . This is how we will create a new CMS Category.

3. Fill in all the required fields.

   

4. You now know exactly what to do with the three "meta" options.

5. Friendly URLs are cool. I suggest you enter the title of your article in this field, with a dash between each word. So Why teddies are so fluffy would be entered as why-teddies-are-so-fluffy. Just leave out the speech marks and use lower case for all the characters.

6. Select the Parent CMS Category.

7. Click on Save. Now you have a new CMS category.

8. Now click on the Add new button next to Pages in this category.

9. Fill all the required fields.

   

10. Don't forget to select the Displayed option, otherwise your new article will not be readable.

11. When the article is ready, click on Save.

12. Repeat these steps as many times as you want to write new articles.
