[SOLVED] Custom content field

Hi guys,

I am new to CMSMS but so far so good. My site is nearly complete now - I just have one quick request.

How do I create custom content fields?

For example, on CMSMS there is only one content field called 'CONTENT'.

Is there a way to add different, custom content fields. I would like to add 'INTRODUCTION', 'MAIN FEATURES', 'SPECIFICATION', 'ORDERING INFO'.

Of course, I can do this all in the general CONTENT field, but it gets messy.

Looking forward to any help!

Simon

Sorry - one final question.

Do I still need to have the {content} tag in my template?

When I removed the {content} tag and replaced it with {content block="intro"}, {content block="features"}, {content block="specification"}, etc, nothing displayed in my content area.

Please let me know if it is compulsory to have the {content} tag.

Thanks,

Simon
