Trying to add custom HTML content to the index page only.

I need to add some html to the main page that will not show up on any other page. I understand I can customize the box layout for the index, but I cannot find anywhere how to include a separate include file for the index only.

Here's the layout I am after. "CUSTOM CONTENT" would only show up on the index page:

Thanks!

Put your HTML in the Define_Main_ Page - Admin> Tools> Define Pages Editor

Re: Trying to add custom HTML content to the index page only.

Yes that works for inserting html into the main content column/area but I need additional html below the header and above the 'contentMainWrapper' table. Can you suggest how to do that?

Thanks! :smile:

We don't provide private consultations via PM.

Turn off both sidebars from the admin and then you can do whatever you want with the middle.

Re: Trying to add custom HTML content to the index page only.

My sincere apologies. Should have read the "About Posting" section a little more carefully. I was am not looking for private consultation.

That image that I uploaded earlier does show a simple version of what I am trying to do. I understand that I can turn off the columns but I need to keep the left column on as it will have all dynamic content.

Is it possible to do what I am looking to do?
