    Hi everyone,

    I am trying to use WordPress as a CMS and need to know...Can you have more than one updatable section in a page?

    That is , not updatable by pulling in blog posts or comments but normal non-blog site content?

    Many thanks for any help.

    what is normal non-blog content?

    Blog posts are just a type of content. As are pages, and now there are custom post types. You can have any page pretty much pull in any content in any manner.

    A combination of page content, post content, post types, specific categoies, specific tags, etc.

    Hi Voodoo, yes exactly, blog posts are a type of content and I'm refering to content that isn't a blog post related.

    What tag(s) would I use to pull it in, and can I have 2 seperately maintained sections within one page.

    For example I want to be able to define a template that has 2 section in it called say "upperSection" and "lowerSection" and have the text and image content of these seperately updateable by the end user via the admin area.

    I want this, too! I just came upon this plugin, that does exactly what you asked for, and more.

    "Multiple content blocks" is included, though it is also available as a separate plugin.

    Still testing it myself, but seems to work great with WP 3.0.1
