Hi Everyone,
I have previously heard rumours to stay away from the built-in Pages module. From what I understand, devs often steered away from it during EE1’s time, and, for a while during EE2.
Has it had a big update since the problems it had in its early days? Does it conflict with any major plugins? Are people using it now? Have you experienced any issues? Is it still reliable? Is there an alternative third party plugin that does the same thing?
Thanks,
I’ve never heard of the Pages module being unreliable..but have seen people push it way past what it was ever designed to do. Structure did this for a time until they started creating their own tables rather than building on top of Pages.
But I’d suggest trying it yourself rather than relying on vague rumors without more detail provided.
Fair enough…
I did do a writeup on the Pages module on Train-ee: http://www.train-ee.com/courseware/free-tutorials/comments/pages-module-1-an-introduction-and-history
Basically so long as you are using it for a few one-off out of navigation pages it’ll be fine. I wouldn’t go so far as to base my entire site navigation on it.
