Home page content blocks

[DonaldDasher]

Is it possible to have two main article blocks on the main page, split 50/50 across the width?

example:

left column | Main page block 1 | Main page block 2 | right column

SMF 1.1.5

Did you look at your frontpage options in the admin panel Donald? Those are the only options you can get, and I'm sure one of theme will work for you.

Yes, I did but i8 cannot work out how to display two main page blocks side by side as the main content.

If you look at the panel options for blocks, there are settings to display them side by side.

Many thanks for the tip! How do i set the widths to equally 50/50?

Here's what I'm getting:

Donald, take a close look. Where it says width of each block for this horizontal layout.

Fabulous - I found the setting ;-)

I seem to have problems when displaying HTML tables on the front page as the spacing is all messed up.

Can anybody help with this?

Can't view your frontpage as a guest, so I can't see what you're talking about. But that is probably due to you using an editor to create the table. If you used one. Take a look at the source of your table and look at all the extra code that the editors add in without being asked.
