Hi there,

After a few server problems, thanks to the team at IT.com, i'm now ready to integrate CMS into a clients website.

So far so good, it appears too easy to be true! However, on this site I am integating CMS into, there is a news column on the left hand side of each page.

here is the page i am working on:http://www.interiorcentral.tv/about_usPage.php

I 'thought' CMS would be able to set sections of the site to be updatable rather than whole pages only. For example on my about us page, I have set up CMS so the main text is updatable (which took seconds!). However, i wanted to be able to create a section called 'news list' and pull the data into the left hand column on each page.

I kind of got the idea this was workable on viewing the 'how it works' section on the CMS part of IT's website - it shows a page with a right column with links and customer testimonials on.

Is this possible somehow?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers,
Nikki.
