Custom pages are a great way to take your Podia site to the next level!
With custom pages, you'll be able to add new pages to your site and use that to create pages such as About Me, Contact Us, and other types of pages!
Introduction
Custom pages add a unique touch of personalization to your Podia site.
You can create them anytime you need new pages such as an "About Me", "Contact Us", or a special page sharing your story or any other concept you envision.
These custom pages aren't tied to any products or categories, meaning they're not meant to be sales pages.
Product sales pages are automatically generated whenever a new product is created on Podia. Here's how to edit the sales page for your products.
Let's explore how to add new custom pages to your site!
Adding new pages to your site
Adding a new custom page can be done directly from your Site builder.
Here's how to add new pages to your site:
From your dashboard, click on Website on the sidebar menu and then select Edit site.
From your site builder, click on the page navigation menu, in the left upper corner.
Click on "+ New Page" to add a new custom page to your site.
Newly created pages will be empty, without any content, waiting to be customized.
Once inside the new page, you can add new sections or modify the existing sections of your new page.
Customizing your page
Newly added pages will be empty, without any content, waiting to be customized.
You will need to populate this blank canvas with the content you want to display, such as text, images, and other elements that align with your site's goals and aesthetic.
Adding new page sections
Here's how to add new sections to your site pages:
Hover your mouse over the area where you'd like to add a new page section and click the “+” symbol.
Select the section you want to add using the left-hand menu based on the type of content you want to add (products, text , testimonials, etc.)
Pick from one of the pre-made design options the one that suits you best
Use the Content tab to modify the content of your section, such as adding text, buttons, etc.
Use the Design tab to modify the design of your page section, such as choosing colors, layout options, etc.
Repeat the process until you have added as many page sections as you want and your page feels complete!
Editing page sections
You can also edit existing sections you have on your pages if you ever want to modify its content or design.
Click directly on the page section you’d like to edit.
Use the left-hand menu to make modifications to this specific page section.
The Content tab allows you to modify the content of your section, and the Design tab allows you to change design options.
What's next?
New pages you add won't automatically be linked throughout your site.
If you want to connect these pages and display them in other areas of your site, you can manually create links to these pages.
This can be done by placing buttons on your site or including the links in your site's header and footer.

No. When you create a new custom page, we don't automatically link it elsewhere on your site. This is to allow you the option to keep these pages hidden or only share the link with select visitors.
If you wish, you can manually create links to these pages using buttons throughout your site or by adding these links to your site's header and footer.
