[support] Arranging multiple blocks in custom region

[Ms. Nancy Wichmann]

Just adding blocks on the front page only does not require a special template. That's standard block settings. "Show on only..." and "<front>.


I can't recall whether the "content bottom" region is standard in D7. But I did exactly what you want (D6) on http://www.bostonpublicschools.org


I simply floated the blocks in the content bottom region and gave them a width of 30% with a bit of right margin. No special template.
