How to add multiple content blocks

If you want to output a page (what else :)) you have to add {content} tag in your template.

But what's to do if you need more than one content block?

For that {content} tag has a useful parameter named block. Tag help says to this parameter:

# (optional) block - Allows you to have more than one content block per page. When multiple content tags are put on a template, that number of edit boxes will be displayed when the page is edited.

Let's make an example. If you want a second text block (for instance named Textblock-2) you have to add the following:

{content block="Textblock-2"}

in your template on place where you want to locate second content block. When you now edit a page (which is attached with this template) there will be a second textarea called "Textblock-2".

So it's very easy to add multiple content blocks. At the same way you can add a third, fourt, fifth, ... content block (like you want).

Note: The target of most module output will be the first content block (created with {content}).
