No link to create new Personal Campaign Page

Drupal 6.9 - CiviCRM 2.2 alpha3

There is no link to create a new Personal Campaign Page that I can find in alpha3!

The only way to create a new page is by clicking the link on an existing PCP or by using the
Code: [Select]
../civicrm/contribute/campaign?action=add&reset=1&pageId=1 URL string.

I am sure the link was in alpha1 - am I missing something here? Thanks for the cool stuff - waiting for the next release (with iCal fix) so I can start digging in!

Based on some feedback that we thought made sense  :) we removed the "create your own fundraising page" link from the main online contribution pages. By default, this link shows up on the contribution "Thank-you" page and on all existing PCP's (as you noted).

The reasoning was that it was not generally desirable to "side-track" a person as they were preparing to make a donation - better to invite them to do fundraising after they've made a contribution themselves.

That said, it's easy to add links to "Create your own personal fundraising page" anywhere you might want them. AND, prompted by your question I've added this info to the inline help on the Enable Personal Campaign Pages form:

Quote
When Personal Campaign Pages are enabled, you can also place additional links (or menu items) inviting constituents to create personal fundraising pages using the following URL:

http://<your site>/civicrm/contribute/campaign?action=add&reset=1&pageId=1
