I would like to split up the homepage into 4 different 'zones' and post content to these from separate 'pages' within the admin. How do I add the relevant code to the home page template to make this happen.....or am I looking at this in the wrong way - is there an easier way to do this.
cheers

multiple content areas on 1 page
Re: multiple content areas on 1 page
{content block="Zone 1"}
{content block="Zone 2"}
{content block="Zone 3"}
{content block="Zone 4"}
Add them to your template. Then when it comes to posting new content with that template you will have 4 boxes to fill in

Easier way are:
1. add other three {content block="zoneX"} to your template but edit all contents in home page
2. add other three {global_content name="zoneX"} and edit that contents in Global Content Block
If you want edit that contents from other pages, you must hack php code

Re: multiple content areas on 1 page
There is also the module PageBlocks, that gives you the option to attach other pageblocks to a page. With this module you can re-use the content and dont have to edit all contentblocks that otherwise have to be edited....
GCB's is another option...
