how can I create custom pages (html enabled) and link them in the menu?

This gets a bit detailed, but the easiest way is to create them as a module. To do that you need to do the following (remove all //:

1) Create a file xoops_version.php called in a php or text editor such as Notepad as follows:

////$modversion['name'] = pagename;
//$modversion['version'] = 1.00;
//$modversion['description'] = page descripyion;
//$modversion['credits'] = "your name";
//$modversion['author'] = "Syour name";
//$modversion['dirname'] = "name of folder you will put it in //under /modules/";

//$modversion['hasAdmin'] = 0;
//$modversion['adminmenu'] = '';

//$modversion['hasMain'] = 1;

//?>

2) Create a file called index.php and place the following in it:

//require('header.php');

//include(XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/header.php');


?>

//print '';

//include(XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/footer.php');

?>

3) Create header.php:

//?php
//
//include "../../mainfile.php";

//?>

4) Create a folder named the same as you listed in step 1. Then put these files in it. Next go install it as a module.

Or you could get the modules Content, Tiny Content, Page Wrap, or a number of others.

i followed step by step but it doesnt appear in the module administration, did miss something?

Did you make sure that the directory was under modules? That is the only thing I think could go wrong.
