Communication > Page builder. The page title opens its builder; the settings icon opens the page form. The builder also has a
Settings button.
URL and text
| Setting | Purpose |
|---|
| URL portion | Unique page identifier, such as community-guide |
| URL | Read-only public address shown after the page is created |
| Title | Page title, with a required master value |
| Meta description | Description used in page metadata |
| Social title and description | Separate text for social link previews |
| Social image | One uploaded preview image shared across languages |
URL portions use letters, numbers, hyphens and underscores and are limited to 50 characters. Changing the URL portion changes the page address; review existing links.
The normal public route is
custom-pages/community-guide/. For another public path, use XenForo's
Setup > Route filters. For example, replace
custom-pages/community-guide/ with
guide/. Page Builder does not provide a separate editable canonical URL field; canonical addresses are generated through XenForo routing.
Page settings combine the public address and translated metadata.
Availability and discovery
- Enabled: Allows the page to be published, subject to its schedule and audience criteria.
- Show in page list: Includes an eligible page in the public index at custom-pages/.
- Display title: Controls the visible page heading.
- Schedule: Optional start and end dates.
- Include in search: Controls inclusion in XenForo search.
- Include in sitemap: Controls sitemap eligibility.
- Noindex: Outputs a noindex directive and excludes the page from the sitemap.
Search, sitemap and noindex are separate from visitor access. Read
Publishing and access and
Search and SEO.
Layout and styling
Choose Default or Full width, a block appearance preset, CSS classes and page CSS. Breadcrumbs, notices, the site header, navigation and footer can be hidden independently. An optional style override displays the page in the selected XenForo style for all visitors. These settings are explained in
Appearance.
Public list and ordering
The public index at
custom-pages/ lists eligible pages with descriptions and document icons. Visitors need the
View page list permission.
Show in page list controls each page's inclusion; publication and audience rules still apply, subject to the restricted-page viewing permission.
Use
Sort in the ACP page list and drag pages into order. The public index follows this order. New, copied and imported pages are added at the end.
Reactions and embedding
Set the page reaction mode to Off, Like only or Reactions. Add a
Reactions block to place a panel in the layout.
See
Embedding and sharing to display a page in a forum message or obtain embed code.
Copy and delete
Use
Duplicate page from the builder, settings or page actions menu to create a separate page. The copy starts disabled and receives a unique URL portion. Review links, schedules and audiences before enabling it. Global block placements remain shared references.
Deleting a page removes its layout. Shared global block sources are managed separately.
Use the page list to open, configure, copy or export pages.
