SOLVED - Different Side Content

[katea]

OK guys, I'll try to explain this as best I can.

I have a template, that has a header, footer of course and main content and also side content.

Now, forget about the header and footer  ... in that main content, I want two columns one for page content, one for the menu ... left column menu as it were ...

Now, the left content, will need to change, whether it be a menu or just images and text depending on the page.

Can someone guide me on the best practices for this?

Is there anyway we can create an editable field for the left content that will feature on a page edit? .... So that I can update the left content via the actual page itself?

I don't really want to create hundreds of containing content blocks ,,, II'm just looking for something simple where I can be able to change the left column and main content on the page edit.

I really hope this makes sense.

Thanks.

Extra content blocks: http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... ent_Blocks

Content based on page:

Code: Select all

{if $page_alias == 'home'}
  {* content goes here *}
{else}
  {* other content goes here *}
{/if}
