Hi. I'm quite new to Drupal, but I've been doing PHP programming for a little while now, but I'm having problems translating what I need into the Drupal methodology.

I've got a page that I'd like a user to update. There are 2 columns, a navigation block for that node and a content block, also specific to that node. When the user adds new content, I'm using flexinode to display links in a navigation block on the left. I'd like that content to show up in the content block and preserve the navigation block. Simple stuff really. I just don't have the correct combination down to make this work properly.

THANKS!

Greetings and welcome to Drupal

I'm not sure if this is the answer you are looking for, but the first thought that came to my mind was the Recent Post feature in drupal.

I'm guessing that you're referring to the forum module? The functionality of the forum topics for recent posts is exactly what I need, but I would need to be able to create more than just 2 categories, specify which pages or nodes display the appropriate posts and then be able to modify the title for the links.

I was hoping that there was going to be some built in functionality for this already or an existing module that seems a little easier and faster to customize.
