Can I have an HTML block in a page? I'd like a list of events on a page.

I'm getting there. Here's what I'd like now.

I'd like a new page with the nav and header and footer that is on the rest of my site, but with a block of nothing in the middle where I can put html. Can I do this? Can I add a page like that?

What I'm trying to do:

I'd like a page with a list of all my recent events. Just date, name, location that will link to either the gallery or event that contains the images. I thought a simple html table would be an easy enough way to to update over time. Is that do-able? Or is there a better way?

Today I use http://backprint.com/trishtunney to link back to my galleries, but it seems stupid if I can just have my own list.

thanks!
Trish

    Yes, you can do precisely that. In the Organize menu, just go Create->Page. Then customise the page and you can add an HTML block to it with whatever (non-JavaScript) content you like.

    Alternatively, put all your event galleries into one folder, then apply this customisation to turn the gallery thumbnails into a list of clickable names instead (you could also just create a page with a Galleries block on it, and add the galleries you want to it):

    I know I saw it before, but I can't find the Organize menu. Where is it?

    I like your all-event-galleries-in-one-folder idea, but it wouldn't work for me as I have too many event galleries, and some are multiple gallery events, some are galleries.

    thanks!
