Additional custom content modules?

[alchemy]

I'm currently working on a layout that requires use of two custom content modules in Tabula Rasa. I've been so used to working with LJ's S2 that it didn't occur to me while I was designing that DW would only offer one custom text module as standard in the wizard.

Does anyone know the code for adding additional custom content modules in the theme layer? Please note that I am one of those people who is very proficient in CSS but not so great at S2 or other types of coding, so step by step instructions would be a godsend.

Thanks in advance!

True, and yes, you could. Code is function print_module_userprofile() { var Page p = get_page(); var string title = ""; if ($*module_userprofile_opts_userpic) { if (defined $p.journal.default_pic) { open_module("photo", $title, $p.journal.userpic_listing_url); $p.journal->print_userpic(); println "<p>British Liberal, house husband, school play leader and stepdad. Campaigner, atheistic feminist, amateur baker. Male.</p> <p><img class='left' src='http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/hprofile-ak-snc4/hs343.snc4/41417_717005385_7555_n.jpg' style='width:50%; max-width:200px'>Known to post items of interest on occasions.

Hi.</p>"; close_module(); } } if ($*module_userprofile_opts_name or $*module_userprofile_opts_website) { open_module("about", $title, $p.view_url{"userinfo"}, true); if ($*module_userprofile_opts_name) { println "<p>"+$p.journal.name+"</p>"; } if ($*module_userprofile_opts_website and $p.journal.website_url != "") { var string website_name = ( $p.journal.website_name != "" ) ? $p.journal.website_name : $*text_website_default_name; println "<p><a href='$p.journal.website_url'>$website_name</a></p>"; } close_module(true); open_module("user-links", $title, ""); $p.journal->print_interaction_links(); close_module(); } }

Since I did that, I've learnt a lot more about S2, so probably wouldn't do it in the same way, but it works and until I've time to work out what I actaully want to do, it does the job.

Important to fully format everything though, use P tags, no aut linebreaks or similar.

Thank you, I'll give it a try! I took a look at your layout, and I think it might just do the trick.
