CW Quick Pages is the quickest way to add a content page in Joomla!. Simply create a CW Quick Pages menu item; add your page content directly in the menu item, and Save. That's all there is to it!
This component comes with 3 different page types: page, contact, and event. Each page type is defined and stored as Joomla menu items, so your page and menu data are finally stored in one place. No more opening com_content, creating an uncategoriezed article and then creating a single article menu item just to create a simple content opage. With CW Quick Pages, you cut out the com_content middle man and create pages simply by creating menu items.
Note: CW Quick Pages does not have a search plugin yet, so the content created with this component is not currently searchable.

The quickest way to do this is to use the Contact menu item type as an example. Notice that in /components/com_cw_quickpages/views/page/tmpl
there are 2 files for the contact layout: contact.php
and contact.xml
.
The file contact.php
defines the layout of the page, while contact.xml
defines the menu item type as well as the parameters to be used in the menu item.

contact.php
and contact.xml
in your template to some other name, making sure that everything but the file extension is the same. (Example: newtype.php
and newtype.xml
