Create a Custom Page in the Web Editor
Learn how to create a new custom page in the Admin Web Editor, enter a valid page path, understand route restrictions, and finish page creation successfully.
This guide explains how to create a new custom page inside the Admin Web Editor.
Use it when you want to:
- add a new custom page to your website
- understand what the page name and page path fields are for
- avoid invalid or blocked page paths
- know why the Create button may stay unavailable
Before You Start
Open the Web Editor first from System > Platform Customization.
Then open the Pages panel from the left side of the builder.
Open The Create Page Window
In the Pages panel, select the + button.
OpenMirai opens the Create New Page window.
This is the form used to add a new editable custom page to your page list.
Understand The Create Page Form
The form includes:
- a Page Name field
- a Page Path field
- path-format guidance
- reserved-path guidance
- Cancel
- Create
You need both a page name and a valid page path before OpenMirai lets you create the page.
Enter The Page Name
Use Page Name to give the page a clear label inside the builder.
This helps you recognize the page later in the Pages panel.
Choose a name that makes the purpose of the page obvious, such as a landing page, campaign page, or support page.
Enter The Page Path
Use Page Path to choose the web address for the page.
OpenMirai expects a path style such as:
/about/pricing/summer-campaign
The page path is important because it controls where visitors can open the page on your website.
Use A Valid Page Path
To create the page successfully, the path must follow OpenMirai's path rules.
The path can use:
- lowercase letters
- numbers
- hyphens (
-) - underscores (
_) - path separators (
/) when needed
The path cannot use:
- spaces
- uppercase letters
- invalid special characters
If the path format is invalid, OpenMirai shows an inline error under the field.
Avoid Reserved Or Duplicate Paths
Some paths are reserved by the platform and cannot be used for custom pages.
OpenMirai shows reserved-path guidance under the field so you can avoid conflicts with built-in platform routes.
A path also cannot be reused if another custom page already has that same path.
If the path is blocked because it is reserved or already in use, OpenMirai shows an inline error message and keeps the form from being submitted.
Wait For Validation To Finish
OpenMirai checks the path as you type.
Because this validation updates in real time, there can be a brief moment before the final result appears.
During that time, the Create button can stay unavailable until the validation finishes.
Create The Page
When the page name and page path are both valid, the Create button becomes available.
Select Create to add the page to your page list.
After creation, OpenMirai adds the page to the Pages panel so you can open it and start editing.
What To Expect While Creating A Page
While using the create-page form, you may notice:
- inline validation feedback under the path field
- the Create button staying disabled until the form is valid
- a temporary Creating... state after you submit the form
This is normal while OpenMirai checks the path and creates the page.
When To Use Cancel
Use Cancel when you want to close the window without creating the page.
If you cancel, OpenMirai closes the form and leaves the current page list unchanged.
Best Practices For New Pages
To keep your website organized:
- choose a page name that is easy for your team to recognize
- use short, readable paths
- avoid paths that are too similar to important live pages
- confirm the path carefully before you create the page
This helps reduce confusion later when you manage many custom pages.
What To Do Next
- open the new page from the Pages panel
- add content and layout blocks in the builder
- review the page path again before making the page live
