Help with 3 column layout

Post by cass »

I have followed the advice given be RonnyK in an earlier post 'help with 3 column layout' 9 Aug 2007, to create my 3 columns, 
however  when I go to edit a page, I can only edit the centre box, no other editing boxes come up, so I can't access the left and right columns.  Can somebody explain what I may have done wrong.  I am very new to this and appreciate all your help.

To have an editable box you need {content} tag, to have more read the content tag help... like modules but Tags instead... \/ below...

Hey,

yes, you can use other content blocks: the syntax is:

{content block="thenameyoucreate"}

so, here is your hypothetical HTML template:






{title}{content}
{content block="sidebarOne"}
{content block="sidebarTwo"}



OBVIOUSLY it's VERY simple: I just wanted you to see how to write out the content blocks, and where.

This will put extra content blocks on the page editor!!
