Index Page - Template Guide

I want a specific paragraph to come up on my index (home) page but I don't see where I can make this happen. Is it possible?

Also, do you have a more detailed template guide? Something to reference that will allow for changes without having to try and figure it out.

my guess is it will have something to do with "_lib/global.php" - line 92 (echo "\t<div id=\"main\">\r\n";). a conditional statement telling it to show something there only when its the main page. im no php expert though so dont do anything you cant reverse with my advice.

You can only add content to the sidebar of footer at present.

As described by JMS, you can add any additional content below line 92 of /_lib/global.php:
echo "\t<div id=\"main\">\r\n";

Remember this will need to be done each time you upgrade.

How can I add a page to be included in the main body of the site? That's the type of guidance I need. I want to preserve your programming, but add the content I want.

Also, I'm trying to place the login boxes up in the header area, and I used the inc_head.php file, but nothing happens. This is the type of guidance I need. I know you already have some features in place, but I don't know what all of them are. I'm discovering them as I look thru your code. Please help. Your docs and guides does not tell all.

if you want to add a page you can look at your site in a browser like firefox and right click any page you want to take style from, then view source code and copy it. paste this code into an html file in one of the directories on your site and it should look just like the page you took it from, then you can make changes to it as you would any other html file. then all you have to do is link to it through the blog header or something.
