CMS Made Simple Forums

I am trying to convert a site over to CMSMS and the old site has an area for text, one for photos and another for ads. The client would like to keep this basic layout, but I can't figure out the best way to do it.

assuming text is the "main" content I would use content for it

assuming that every page have same images (or maybe one folder of images) I would use album or image_gallery for it in the template (you could have different images for different pages by doing something like {album albumid=$pageid})

and assuming ads come from some other system like adsense I would just add it to the template

without seeing the site cant really say more

hope this helps

Here's a sample page from the old site. The images correspond with the given article - the publisher like to show the layouts from the printed version. The ads are just pop ups of images from the magazine with a link to the advertiser's site.

It doesn't have to be exactly like this, they just want the same basic elements.

thanks...

You can add more than 1 content block in a page. Just see at the "tags" section in the admin-area and look for {content}. You can read in the help that you can have multiple {content}-tags.

that's what I'm looking for...
