using Concrete5 to edit an existing website
Permalink
I have an existing website I would like to use Concrete5 to edit it. How can I import my home pages code into Concrete5 or set up Concrete5 to edit my existing website?
Thank you! I have a test website set up but how do I create a new page and import the HTML to it?
You need to login, hover over the Edit button, and click 'Add page'.
Whenever you do that, a subpage is created beneath the current page.
You can also login and add pages via the sitemap in the dashboard.
Please see the second link in my previous post (which got updated while you responded).

Thank you for all your help. I, unfortunately, cannot do it as I do not see where I can cut and paste the code into the page itself and due to restrictions I can only use the 5.6.0.1 build and not the current "stable" version.
I would like to know how I can add a page, and then copy and paste my coding into the page as a whole or if I need to separate it like Header, footer, left side, right side etc...

Ah, you don't mean just the content, but the layout as well.
The layout and design has to be converted to a concrete5 theme. It is very easy to do - just add some php snippets and remove some html.
This is an excellent how-to on how to make your own theme (a long read but well worth it): http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/how-tos/designers/making-a-t...
Once the theme has been created and installed you can start adding blocks (holding content) in your defined areas, and copy in your text content.
