[Xerte] RE: question about xerte

Follow these steps and you will see what I mean:

Open Xerte.
Create a new page.
In the page add a text icon
Write some text in it.
Select the page icon
Click 'file, save as model' and save the model

...

Now go back to your template project.
Insert -> Media - >Xerte content
Load up the model you just saved.
Run the piece.

So now you can create custom pages to go alongside those included in the
template. That is what you need to do.

Please address questions to the list.

But i have already installed xerte. i opened xerte and then i choosed
templates->page templates and i work there because i found it easier.
Also i choosed to publish the project from there and upload this to my
web
application. i Just do not know how can i see the source code of my
published pages to put the code you gave me and display the example as
text and not as code.

This may be a stupid question but it is my first touch with
xerte.forgive me.

>From the xerte (not the templates) i tried to do something but when i
published it it did not produce me the web files. i do not know why and
what was my mistake. so i am working with templates wich is more simple.
but if there is a better way let me know please.

Thanks for your time.
