How to add an extra content area to the home page?

[yamadan]

Hi DrByte,

More details..

I am trying to have only on my home page;

1, above the main products - a jquery slider or similar

2, followed by the - main featured products

3, below featured products - a text area (maybe using jquery tabs)

I can use the define_main_page.php for above the products
but i need another similar area below the products.

Why: because I want an area to edit above & below the displayed products-
For improved design & SEO reasons to add more text.

Hope that's a bit clearer.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Take a look at this post. Bunyip's instructions worked for my site perfectly, but others have had problems.

I have both an upper and lower define_main_page with my featured products in the middle.

Hope this helps,

Having a problem with getting that to work.

It has the editable define-main-page-lower in the admin

But does not show on front page.

Is there any thing elese i may need to change?

thanks

Think i've got it now.

I was using the classic template and it also had a copy of tpl_index_default.php

Thanks
