Florian Link	Wednesday 14 January 2004 7:52:38 am I would like to create a "right menu area" like on the eZ Systems site, which is the best way to do that? It should be a region on my site which shows additional information on the current show object. Which is the best way to customize that? I could add it to the main content, e.g. add it to the template used for articles, but I would prefer to have a "extra" module that handles the extra info boxes for given classes and special object, so that the "central" content can use the templates as they are. Which is the best method to do that?
Tore Skobba	Wednesday 14 January 2004 9:07:15 am Hi I would make an page_right_menu.tpl template. Which I then included in my pagelayout.tpl. Eventual logical decisions whereever to display anything could then be made either in the pagelayout.tpl, or in the page_right_menu.tpl. Cheers Tore
