Insert few texts, Images & google ad link on Home Page.

I want to insert texts, dynamic Images, flash banner on my home page. I have tried inserting images and text just above the <div class="block">{include file=$body}</div> in layout.tpl of Evo Style template. I was able to change the look of my home page but when user clicks on any other link such as viewing any listing, at such time even the text, images which shows on the home page also shows on other pages.

I want to just change the home page of my site and when user click any other links on the home page ... all other pages should open in as in the default evo style template.

Thank You All.

I thik we need a link to truly understand here.

There are two places you can make edits on the home page. Either edit your home.tpl file in each template you are using or if you want to affect all templates at the same time, you place your content in the database using the 68C admin control panel (page editor). Be aware if you do it the second way, you need to cosnider paths on images quite carefully and you cannot parse smarty language in it.

Thank you Seymour for your quick reply. I prefer the first way to implement. It was easy to manage.

Its a really good idea to look at the 68C documentation which is supplied. There is information about templates for example and how they work and are put together. Next on the list is to learn a bit about the "Smarty" language, CSS and HTML.
