Help adding a feature/box to Main Page

[Latte4Val]

Hello,

We're on version 1.3.8a/v1.3.8. I'm not sure about any add on, because I'm brand new to working with ZenCart. I work for a small non-profit, and we do not have a website person (ZenCart was already setup when I started). I am nicely figuring out had to manage their products but there are a few things that I can not figure out.

On the main page of our shopping cart http://www.todoinstitutebooks.com I need to make a change. I found where I can change the text in the Define Page Editor, but I can't find how to add a footer area (of html/text) to this page.

Right now the page shows up with 4 boxes (frames) of information, plus the side bar.
1st box is our define-main-page --Our Introduction
2nd box is Featured Products
3rd box is Monthly Specials
4th box is New Products for Month

I'm wondering how I can have another box like the first one, where I can freely type in any information that I want to communicate to our customers.

I also want to know how to modify our side bar with a link to our main websites home page. If you look at our bookstore link above, you'll see the sidebar, but not being the one that create it, I haven't been able to fine where to edit it.

I thank you kindly for any detailed help you can give.

Valarie

This is possible but a bit complicated until you become a little more familiar with changing and adding/editing within the structure
