How to add a custom PHP page in Magento?

Question

Details

I already have the .phtml file
The actual path = /var/www/html/store/app/design/frontend/base/default/template/page/distributors.phtml

After doing some research I found that I will have to add this

{{block type="core/template" template="/var/www/html/store/app/design/frontend/base/default/template/page/distributors.phtml"}}

Where exactly are we suppose to add this ? I logged in to Mogento Admin. Go to CMS > Pages > Add New Page, and the I don't know what elses to do ?

Here is my distributors.phtml :

Download it

OR

View it

Can someone help shed the light on this ?

Thanks.

It really depends what you want to do. The snippet you posted should look like this:

{{block type="core/template" name="distributors" template="page/distributors.phtml"}}

And it should be placed in CMS page Content area.

Thanks, I tried paste this in {{block type="core/template" name="distributors" template="page/distributors.phtml"}}, save and go to Preview, I don't see any effect at all. Is it because the path is wrong ?

Path is correct. Whatever is in your .phtml should show up in CMS page.

It doesn't show. See HERE. :(

Well your template has all kind of issues but let's focus on important part. Did you omit the definition of $distributors variable because currently it's undefined. There is nothing to show.
