Writing and publishing

Say who you are.
Once, and well.

An About page on PixelGlass is a page you write in the editor, like a post with no date. Or it is a site page your agent writes as a file, with a layout of its own, live the moment it is written.

Say it to your agent

Make an About page from the bio below, and add it to the menu after Home.

  • create_post
  • publish_post
  • list_site_pages
  • write_site_page

Two ways to do it.

By hand

In the admin

  1. Open Pages in the navbar and press New page.
  2. Write the title, About, and the page in the same editor as a post. Set its address in Post settings.
  3. Press Publish, then Next, then Publish with When on Now. A page goes to the site, never to the newsletter.
  4. As an admin, open Settings › Design and press Edit beside Navigation.
  5. Under Link to…, choose the page from Pages, then press Save.

With your agent

In Claude, ChatGPT or your editor

Make an About page from the bio below, and add it to the menu after Home.

Build an About page with our three founders side by side, each with a photo and two lines, in the site's own look.

Put the About page back the way it was yesterday.

The tools it calls

  • create_post
  • publish_post
  • list_site_pages
  • write_site_page
  • edit_site_page
  • render_page
  • site_pages_history
  • restore_site_pages
  • set_navigation

For example

  • A one-woman studio

    A ceramicist writes her About page in the editor in ten minutes and puts it first in the menu.

  • A team page with a grid

    A small architecture firm asks its agent for an About page with a grid of partners. The agent writes it as a site page, checks it, and sends the address.

Questions, answered

How do I make an About page on PixelGlass?
Open Pages, press New page, write it and publish it. Then add it to your menu in Settings › Design, under Navigation.
What is the difference between a page and a site page?
A page is written in the editor, like a post with no date. A site page is a file in your site's folder, written by your agent, with its own layout or none, and live as soon as it is written.
Can I undo a change to a site page?
Yes. Every write is a version. On the Pages screen, Site pages has a History, and Restore brings any version back. An agent does the same with restore_site_pages.
Who can make site pages?
Admins and the owner. Editors and authors write pages in the editor.
Can my agent make an About page for me?
Yes. It writes a page from Markdown with create_post, or an admin's agent writes a site page with write_site_page, checks it with render_page, and adds it to the menu with set_navigation.
