I am new to Magento and completely lost. I have a problem in assigning CMS pages to navigation bar.

Say from manage categories I am creating a sub category contact us & want to show a cms page named contact us in the frontend when clicking on that contact us menu. What do I have to do for that? And after clicking on the menu it should go to a page like mysite.com/contact-us.html. It is going there but it's showing there are no products matching the selection.

You can use this code to get all cms pages dynamically in navigation

Place this code in header file below topcontainer

  <?php $collection = Mage::getModel('cms/page')->getCollection()->addStoreFilter(Mage::app()->getStore()->getId());?>
<?php  $collection->getSelect()
->where('is_active = 1'); ?>
<ul id="nav">
<?php foreach ($collection as $page): ?>
<?php $PageData = $page->getData(); ?>
<?php// print_r($PageData);?>
<?php if($PageData['identifier']!='no-route' && $PageData['identifier']!='enable-cookies' && $PageData['identifier']!='home2') { ?>
<li>
<a href="/magento/index.php/<?php echo $PageData['identifier']?>"><span><?php echo $PageData['title'] ?></span></a>
</li>
<?php } ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

Note change this part of code "/magento/index.php/" according to your domain

Create a category

Create your cms page

Create an URL rewrite that redirects your category to your cms page.

Thus, you will have a link in the menu and that link would redirect to your CMS page.

Example:

Category:

  • Name: About Us

  • URL Key: about-us

  • ID: 4

CMS page:

  • Name: About Us

  • URL Key: about-us

URL Rewrite:

  • Type: Custom

  • ID Path: about-us

  • Request path: catalog/category/view/id/4

  • Target path: about-us/

  • Redirect: Permanent
