I have a few static pages I need to get into magento, the layout is basically as follows:
[HOMEPAGE]
---------------------------------
| <BODY> |
| ------------------- |
| | <HEADER> | |
| ------------------- |
| | <NAV> | |
| ------------------- |
| | | | | |
| | A | | M | |
| | S | | A | |
| | I | | I | |
| | D | | N | |
| | E | | | |
| | | | | |
| ------------------- |
| | <FORM> | |
| ------------------- |
| | <BUTTONS> | |
| ------------------- |
| | <FOOTER> | |
| ------------------- |
| |
---------------------------------
The main area will hold the content entered into the admin cms which can vary page by page, which is perfect.
However I also need the content of the aside to change very slightly on certain static pages. but i dont want to have t include the aside and the main in the wysiwyg editor in the admin. How would I achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
When creating your CMS page, you have a "Design" tab where you can put xml.
You can use
<remove name="blockname"/>
to remove your current block and then
<block type="module/path_name" name="blockname" template="module/path_name.phtml" />
to add blocks here exemple :
<remove name="left.permanent.callout" />
<reference name="left">
<block type="core/template" name="mynewaside" template="aside/sometemplate.phtml" />
</reference>
