ngross Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hi Folks, I want to add another text/message area to the homepage - more or less - identical to the current homepage message (../admin/docs/home.php). I've done quite a bit of development work using procedural php (not professional!) but this OOP leaves me completely bewildered. I guess I should be able to a. add a new column to the DB (I can do this). b. copy 'home.php' and rename it to (say) 'news.php'. Then revise the code to relate to 'news' rather than 'homepage' ? c. I'd also expect to copy/revise the SQL for the requests -- but where to find them? d. then I need to be able to integrate the new procedure into the admin menu e. finally I need to integrate the output into the front page - template ? I've tried searching the forum but I haven't come up with anything quite specific. Any help much appreciated. Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
