Story pages are a great way to share family history, anecdotes, and any thing else you'd like to share in your book. You can add your own title and say whatever you want to say. These pages will also appear in your table of contents page.
To add a story page, simply click the "Insert Page" button (the orange plus sign) where you want the page to appear. Then choose the "Story Page" page type.
There are four layouts available for the story page:
- Full Page Story (text only)
- Story Top/Picture Bottom (text and photo)
- Story Bottom/Picture Top (text and photo)
- Story Continued (text only) - This is for stories that you just can't get in on one page.
Story Pages appear in the Table of Contents (except the "Story Continued" layout)
How can I find the page to select the different pages I want eg Story page, table of contents? Cannot find how to get to these directly. Caroline
I cannot find the page or select story pages.
How do I find the spot to select the story pages? Can.t find them.
my text keeps going outside the box. Am I limited as to the length of what I can type
Seems like I’m not the only one who’s having trouble accessing story page selection.
I just wrote a long text on the story page and have completely lost that page. Is it gone forever? Or can y’all salvage it?
Hi Rosemary, unfortunately, we do not store story pages so if you delete it, it is permanently gone. I'm so sorry for any inconvenience.
Hi Charlie, this drop-down menu can be located under the Layout tab in the edit window. If you're still having trouble locating those options, please contact support@createmycookbook.com so that we can assist you further. Thank you!
Hi Carolyn, you can only include a certain amount of content on each story page. This amount differs depending on the text size you've selected for the page. If you'd like to continue your story onto a second page, we do have a "Continued Story Page" layout.
How do you navigate to the view where you can add story pages?
Hi Michel! To add a story page, click the orange plus sign closest to the page where you'd like for the story page to appear. You'll then need to choose a page type. At that time, please choose "Story Page," then choose the layout that suits your needs best. If you have any further questions, please email us at support@createmycookbook.com. Thanks!
