What is the difference between disable a page and hide the page in the meu into Typo3 CMS? - content-management-system

I am pretty new in Typo3 world (I came from Joomla and WordPress) and I have a doubt related to well understand what is the difference between disable a page and hide the page in the menu in Typo3.
I have create a new test page and I don't want that now it appears in my left main menu.
So I click on the Access tab of this page settings and I tick the Hide (In Menus) "checkbox" so the page exist (I can access and see it using its URL) but don't appear in my main menu.
This is pretty simple but, near to the previous options, I also find the Disable (Page) checkbox. So I have try to tick this checkbox (instead of Hide (In Menus)) and happens something that I did not expect:
My test page appear again in my left main menu (I have no hide it but if I thought that if I disable a page, it is as if this page does not exist, evidently the typo3 operating logic is different from what I expect)
If, in my left main menu, I click on my test page link: the page is open but on the right top corner on the page appear to me the following textual message PREVIEW!
What it mean? I am logged as administrator, maybe the normal visitor can't see the disabled pages whereas administrator\editor see these pages? Or what?
Tnx

Disable page = Nobody can see the page. The page is removed from the menu and it can't be accessed with the URL. You see it because you're logged into the backend. That is also why you see the red sticker 'Preview', because it is a preview.
Hide in menu = Page is hidden from the menu and the sitemap, however, it can be accessed with the URL.
Check the following documentation:
http://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/GettingStartedTutorial/

There is a very short mapping between TYPO3 and Joomla:
TYPO3 "disable" = Joomla "Unpublish Article"
TYPO3 "hide" = Joomla "Unpublish Menu Item"

Apex "Edit" and Create button on the Report and Form pages. Is there any ways to lead to different pages?

I started to learn Apex recently.
I made a report and Form page on Apex.
when I click "Edit" and "Create Button", it goes to the same page.
Is there any ways
For example,
If I click "Edit" on Report page, It leads to page 4
If I click "Create button" on report page, it leads to page 5
Thank you so much.
Not sure if this is what you're after, but it sounds like you need to adjust where the link redirects.
If you run your app, then click 'show edit links' or something similar on the bottom of the screen to the right, you will see the orange button next to page items. Click it and edit the object in the following popup.
Hope this helps!

Hyperlink to Eclipse editor page

I am trying to write an editor for a particular type of file in Eclipse which has multiple pages, just like the PDE editor.
How do I get a hyperlink in the main Overview page to point at one of the individual pages?
I've got the hyperlink drawn but I don't know how to link it to the actual page so that when a user clicks it, the page view changes.
Any ideas?
Follow this recipe:
Create the main page and all the sub pages
Add links
Add HyperlinkAdapter to the links using link.addHyperlinkListener()
In linkActivated() you can switch the page with formEditor.setActivePage(...)

Timeline & iFrame

Can anybody guide about how
does the new FB timeline incorporate the iframe for its pages.
Or is there any new stuffs coming in to replace these stufs?
The way you create and display your iFrame will be the same, except for a size change.
The new iFrame will be 810px wide, instead of 520px - existing tabs (apps) that are set to 520px will just be centered on the page, so they aren't "broken." Giving us 290 extra pixels is great!
You can no longer set a tab as "default landing page". Instead, users always see the main Timeline view and have to actively click through to custom apps.
To edit which apps you display, click the drop-down icon to the right of the tiles, click the ‘+’ button to import your custom apps, and then hover over them and click the pencil to swap them around.
If you have a contest or something on a tab which you would have wanted set as the "default landing page", you can create a post on your page which has a few sentences advertising such, with a link to the tab. You can then "pin" this post to the top of your page, so it will be the first thing users read. "Pinning" and "starring" on your Page act exactly like they do on your personal timeline.
Here's a good explanation of all changes

How to set the front page to be the front page in Joomla

In Joomla how do I set the frontpage to be the front page (without being in the main menu). Currently whatever I set to be the default in the main menu is the first page, but I don't want the front page to be in the main menu.
this si the site
Solved it. I made the front page the first (default) page in main menu. Then I hid the main menu and made a new menu with things I want to be shown.
Another way is to do the same thing with one of the other menus or create a new menu..this way you have the flexibility of using your main menu on the front page
