Good day folks and Happy Holidays,

I am creating a company website ( www.secure-integrations.com/drupal ), having fun doing it with Drupal btw :)

I am interested in making the index page look different and have different content on the internal pages. What module or configuration do I have to follow to accomplish this.

Your help is greatly appreciated and I look forward to reading your replies.

Happy Holidays,
Andres

Just locate the file page.tpl.php in your template folder and make a copy named page-front.tpl.php.

Now you have a template just for the "front" or "home" page.

Your kidding me, it's that easy?

From there what, just edit the css for style? What about all of the content? I would like to be able to have different links and content in the sidebars of each category. From reading I thought that would be accomplished with blocks, I am still new to this.

Drupal is phenomenally customizable, so far I have not ran into anything I can't do with it :)

Cheers,
