[Koha] Adding pages to Koha OPAC - Koha as a CMS

[Aleisha Amohia]

Hello,

Just adding to Katrin's helpful link to the manual, we also wrote a blog 
post tutorial about how to use the Pages feature: 
https://www.catalyst.net.nz/blog/koha-cms-add-content-pages

We'll work on strengthening the manual documentation for this too.
