I have a feeling there will be a very simple answer to this question, but I've searched and searched in the documentation and I just can't seem to hit on the right information to guide me.

I'm setting up a new site in Drupal (5.2). I managed to get it installed and configured with very little problem, and I've created a new theme and added some content. What I need to do now is set up the home page for the site, which, instead of having one big area for content, will have that area divided into four sections, like this ----------------- | | | | ----------------- | | | | | | | --------- | | | | | | ----------------- each of which needs to be editable by the site owner. I've created regions by defining them in my template.php file, and added the regions to my theme so the are now appearing correctly on the home page. I believe what I need to do next is create some new blocks to place in those regions, and then the site owner can simply edit those blocks as needed. So my questions are:

1) Do I have the right idea with creating regions and placing editable blocks inside those regions?

2) How do I create a new block and ensure that it is editable by the site owner? I've seen mention a few times that I should to to "administer > blocks > add block" but I don't see this option in my site admin; the closest thing to it is "administer > site building > blocks", but this page does not include an "add block" function.

I have a feeling that either I'm missing some crucial piece of information, or the documentation I've been reading is not for the version I'm using, or something in my site config is preventing me from seeing all the options/functions I should see in my site admin - or some combination of the above :) Hopefully some kind soul will be able to point me in the right direction!

TIA,

Sarah
