Pages
Pages is Chamilo's built-in, CMS-like tool for the content blocks that make up your portal's public-facing areas — the homepage, footer, navigation menus, and similar placements — without needing to touch a template file.
Accessing Pages
From the administration panel, click Platform > Pages.
How Pages Work
Each page has:
Title and rich-text content
A slug, generated automatically from the title
Enabled — whether the page is currently visible
Position — drag-and-drop ordering within its category
Locale — content is per-language: the same placement can hold one page per language, and the site falls back to the platform's default language if no page exists for a visitor's language
A category — this is what determines where the page is rendered (for example
index,home,footer_public, ormenu_links); Chamilo creates the categories it needs automatically
On a multi-URL (multi-portal) install, pages are also scoped per access URL, so each portal manages its own content.
The Registration Intro Page
Platform > Setting the registration page is a shortcut into this same Pages system for one specific placement: the introductory text shown above the public sign-up form. It's restricted to Portal Administrators. Clicking it either:
Opens the existing intro page for editing, if one already exists for your access URL and language, or
Creates the placement on the fly and takes you straight to creating its content
Whatever you save here is rendered as an info box directly above the registration form — a natural place for instructions, terms specific to your organization, or context prospective users should read before signing up. Leave it disabled (or never create it) to show the plain registration form with no intro text.
