In order to be able to separate and manage various parts of the site, we have to use something called sections. Sections are used to segment the site in a logical way. They are very handy when it comes to the creation of custom templates (override of standard templates in different ways) and access control. For more information about sections, please read the Sections section within the "eZ publish basics" chapter.

The TSCM site can be divided into four dynamic sections:

• News
• Members
• Guestbook
• Links

This separation will make our work a lot simpler when it comes to creating custom templates that will override the standard templates. The following list of steps explains how to create the sections:

1. Make sure you're logged into the administration interface.
2. Select/click the "Setup" tab.
3. Click on "Sections" (from the menu on the left hand side).
   The interface will display a list of the current sections.
4. Click "New section".
5. In the name field, type in "News section".
6. Set the "Navigation Part" dropdown box to "Content structure".
7. Click "OK".

Repeat steps 5 through 7 for the remaining sections using the following section names:

"Member section"
"Guestbook section"
"Link section"

That's it.
