Hi,
I have a client that wants their home page to display differnt panels as shown on attached jpg.
Is there any module that will help to do this?
Usually I would just code the whole thing and edit it when required, but I want something that the client will be able to edit easily.
The one solution that I can think of is to have various {content} blocks but any other ideas would be very welcome
Thank you
Richard

Re: Advice required for Homepage 'panels'
looks like a perfect place for multiple content_blocks to me!
Re: Advice required for Homepage 'panels'
I agree, I'd go for 3 content blocks per box
#heading1
#image1
#content1
#heading2
#image2
#content2
etc.
embrace the power of the cms

Re: Advice required for Homepage 'panels'
Thanks for both the suggestions
I was originally thinking of 6 contents blocks - 1 per box, but laits your idea is much better.
I have changed it slightly as below:
{content block="heading1" wysiwyg="false" oneline="true"}
{content_image block='image1' dir='images'}
{content block="summary1" wysiwyg="false" oneline="true"}
{content block="heading2" wysiwyg="false" oneline="true"}
{content_image block='image2' dir='images'}
{content block="summary2" wysiwyg="false" oneline="true"}
etc...
Cheers
