Howdy,
We're working on a project using Drupal at its core and for one area of the website we would like to implement a section that is distinctly different from the rest of the website.
Basically, in simplest terms, what we'd like to achieve is to have one area of the site distinct from the rest with its own layout and blocks, possibly even the ability to have blocks anywhere including the center content section - however it would all need to be a single installation of drupal on the same domain if at all possible. I guess as a last resort it could be run under a different subdomain via the same installation (I think that is possible with Drupal?) something like http://myarea.thisdomain.com with the main site at http://www.thisdomain.com. I havent discussed that option with the project team though, just thinking out loud with that last point.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers,
James
