Activating, deactivating, or reverting custom pages

When you customize a page, you always have the option to have those modifications Active or Inactive, or to throw away the modifications entirely and revert back to the original standard screen.

When you customize a page, SmartTurn automatically makes the customizations Active. When you Deactivate iconDeactivate a custom page in Active status, you are only deactivating the customizations; you are not deactivating the page. SmartTurn saves a copy of the customized page so you can always reactivate those customizations at a later time.

When you Delete icon Revert a custom page, SmartTurn erases all memory of former customization of that page. If you want to customize the page again after reverting, you must re-configure the customizations for that page.

To deactivate a custom page:

  1. From Administration>Custom Pages, highlight the page with the customizations you want to deactivate.

    You can only Deactivate iconDeactivate pages that show as Active in the Status column.

  2. Select Deactivate iconDeactivate in the toolbar above. The list refreshes with the Status column value for that page as Inactive. Your customizations to this page are kept on file. You can come back any time and reactivate the customizations without having to edit the page again. Remember that you need to log out and log in again to see the changes to the page.

To activate an inactive custom page:

  1. From Administration>Custom Pages, highlight the page with the customizations you want to activate.

    You can only Activate iconActivate pages that show as Inactive in the Status column.

  2. Select Activate iconActivate in the toolbar above. The list refreshes with the Status column value for that page as Active. Remember that you need to log out and log in again to see the changes to the page.

To revert a customized page back to the standard screen:

    You can only Delete icon Revert pages that show as Active or Inactive in the Status column.

  2. Select Delete icon Revert in the toolbar above. The list refreshes with the Customized column value for that page as false, and the Status column value for that page as Not Customized.
