Zen TYPO3 Forum

Hi chucktx,

The left right collumn is just like the normal column, you must design you template so that it support the left and right columns and then use typo script to assign dynamic content to it.

for example (assuming you are using template auto parser extenstion):

if you look in the setup field of your template you should see something like this:
subparts.main < styles.content.get #this corespond to the normal columns
if you want to use the left or right columns u must call it with something like this:
subparts.left_column < styles.content.getLeft
subparts.left_column < styles.content.getRight

try to read the modern template building part 1 documentation at typo3.org and you should have a clearer understanding.

enjoy,

Tan

Sorry about the length of time it took to reply. I got some much needed time away from the Internet. To answer your question I need some information first. Which template are you working with? Default TYPO3 templates or Zen Light?

I am using a hosting site & Fantastico installed TYPO3 & I seem to be able to play with the templates and be abel to add content. The left & right comlums however will not show anything that I put in them. I have tried regular text, a text box, & a login form. NOthing shows up. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate them.
