    Adding content areas to a page.

    I am really new to Umbraco. So far I am liking it a lot.

    I have a question though, and couldn't find anything in searching.

    My design is using a grid, and in any given text page design I could need to add several columns in the grid. And then manage content in them seperertley. Is there any way to do this.

    For example:

    I would like to select a page, add a 4 wide column, and add content. Then add a 2 wide column and add content.

     

    Not sure if this makes any sense, or if this is the right spot for this.

    You could create a document type and matching page template for each of the column styles that youd need, e.g.

    - content page - 1 column
    - content page - 2 column
    - content page - 3 column

    etc, and have a richtext editor for each column.......

    Another way to do it, might be to enable the html template dropdown in TinyMCE (http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/how-tos/enabling-the-%27template%27-plugin-for-tinymce) so that you can choose a template, with the columns in from the richtext editor.

    Hope that helps!

    :)
