how to add boxes to homepage?

hey all, this may be a silly question, so please be patient with me

I would like to add some additional boxes to my homepage so I can some additional images and content to various places on my homepage..

How do I do this.. like maybe tables in various places not truly centered, my goal is to add some imagery to the site besides the to logos that exist

This mod lets you add custom sideboxes. It was last updated for 1.3.7, but if you search for it in the forum, you'll probably find the support thread. Hope that points you in the right direction.

what about adding boxes to the middle of screen

I usually edit the includes/languages/html_includes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/define_main_page.php

add div(s) for the various boxes and position them using CSS.

I had a client who needed something similar. I was going to do what clyde suggested, but I needed the solution to be something the client could maintain without having to know HTML or CSS.. So I came up with the idea of using editable "middleboxes" (centerboxes -- whatever, you get the point..)

I bundled up the solution and you can download it here:

See if this is close to what you are after.. If you have any questions, post them on the support thread...
