Find the option "Link" to create a link to the new page

Hello, I just build a site with PowerCMS.
I added a new page using "content management" and the site menu is not updated. Can not bring up the link to the new page in the menu.
After you update the content, I can not find the option "Link" to create a link to the new page. Can you tell me or find help on this? In advance thank you.
Good day to you.
Cordially. John

Bonjour, je viens de construire un site avec PowerCMS.
J'ai ajouté une nouvelle page à l'aide de « content management » et le menu du site n'est pas mis à jour. Impossible de faire apparaitre le lien de la nouvelle page dans le menu.
Après avoir mis à jour le contenu, je ne trouve pas l'option « Créer un lien » pour créer un lien vers cette nouvelle page. Pouvez-vous m'indiquer ou trouver de l'aide à ce sujet ? D'avance merci.
Bonne journée à vous.
Cordialement. John

menu item,s for new content are not created automatically, you will need to update the menu manually to add the link to the new page.

update the menu manually to add the link to the new page

As a former user of the product Interakt (MX CSS Menus), I naively thought that the menu will be updated automatically. (database driven css menu)
Documentation/

Can we expect a dynamic menu built from a database compatible cs5? If so when?

Thank you

That is a feature that would likely be added to power CMS Builder 2, but there is no guarantee. we currently do not have plans for when Power CMS Builder 2 will be developed, so I cannot say when it would be available.

All right.
For now, I tried to make do with one of MX CSS Menus include in the "front end" and add behavior in the "back end" to the pages related to the link in the menu (joomla works this way).
Until this is possible natively "without tinkering."

Create Link option NOT VISIBLE

Hello,
following the tests I made​​, I see that in the source code of the back-end "content management" the link "Create Link" there.
After adding a new page, I can not find the link "Create Link".
Can you tell me if there is documentation in relation to this point?
What are the conditions necessary prerequisite to appear for "Create Link" option ?
Where can I see how to create a link to the new page?
Thank you for your help.
good week
cordially

Bonjour, suite aux tests que j'ai effectués, je m'aperçois que dans le code source du back-end "content management" le lien "Create Link" existe. Après avoir ajouté une nouvelle Page, je ne retrouve pas ce lien "Create Link". Pouvez-vous me dire s’il existe de la documentation par rapport à ce point précis ? Quel sont les conditions, prérequis nécessaire pour voir apparaitre "Create Link" option? Où pourrais-je voir comment créer un lien vers cette nouvelle page?
Merci pour votre aide.
Bonne semaine
Cordialement

Create Link option NOT VISIBLE

Very well, thank you for the answer.

However, I would note that the information at the "HELP" of "content management" is misleading because it states in paragraph 5 of "Creating new pages" :

Once you have updated the content, click the Create Link option to see how you can create a link to this new page. In addition, this link exists in the source code of the page "load_content.php".

Until the moment this functionality becomes available, I wish you beautiful Christmas and New Year and best wishes for 2012.
Cordially
John

the first part of create pages section in the help reads:

  Administrators have the ability to create new pages that are based on a template. In order to use this feature, your template and the PHP page that displays the template will need to have been set up by the Super Admin.  




In other words, the PowerCMS Supper Admin must first set up the template, then another user logged in as an administrator can create new pages based on the template. The Create Link option is only available if you are logged in using an administrator account, if you are logged in as the Supper Admin user, you will see the View Page link instead.
