This article describes how to add a new site page in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce.

After you create templates and fragments for your site, the next step is to create pages that use them. To get started, select a template or layout, a page name, and a page URL.

Template or layout

Use either a template or a layout for your new page. Learn more in Templates and layouts overview.

Specify the page name

The page name must be unique to your site and should be descriptive so you can find it easily and other people know what the page is intended for. You can rename your page later by editing it and then selecting the pen symbol next to the page name in the property pane.

Specify the page URL

Enter a URL for your new page. When you create a page, enter a string that forms a complete URL. This string is known as a relative URL or a URL slug. A complete URL is generated based on the URL slug, and the new page is assigned to it. You can change the URL slug later, before you publish the page. Learn more in Create a page URL.

Note

Dynamics 365 Commerce decouples URLs and content. In other words, you can create a page that isn't associated with a URL, and you can create a URL that isn't associated with a page. Therefore, you can swap content for a URL without downtime, and redirects are easier to manage.

Add a new page

To add a new site page to your site, follow these steps:

Under Sites, select Fabrikam (or the name of your site).
Select New Page.
In the New Page dialog box, select a template, and then select OK.
In the Page Name field, enter a page name (for example, My New Page).
In the URL field, enter a string (URL slug) to complete the URL (for example, mynewpage).
Select OK. The page editor appears. A header and a footer are automatically added to the page, based on the template that you selected.
In the page outline, select the Main slot, select the ellipsis button (...), and then select Add Module.
Select Container, and then select OK.
Select Fluid Container, select the ellipsis button, and then select Add Module.
Select Content Rich block, and then select OK.
Select Content Rich Block, select the ellipsis button, and then select Add Module.
Select Content rich block item, and then select OK.
In the properties pane on the right, select Paragraph, and then, in the field, enter My test text.
Select Save, and then select Finish editing.
In the Comments field, enter Added new page, and then select OK.
Select Preview to preview your page. When you finish, close the preview tab to return to the authoring tool.
Select Publish.
In the navigation path (breadcrumbs), select Fabrikam (or the name of your site).
In the navigation pane on the left, select URLs.
Find and select your URL (mynewpage) in the list.
Select Publish.
