Can I have 2 drag and drop areas in a page template

Hi,

I would like to have separate drag n drop areas in a page template, so for example I can have something hardcoded between them.
But if I put :

{% dnd_area "dnd_area"

label="Home Hero section"

class="hero-container hero-container--home"

{% end_dnd_area %}

{% dnd_area "dnd_area"

label="Main section"

class="body-container body-container--home z-2"

{% end_dnd_area %}

The page that I set the template on only shows the one called Main section.

Hi @studiokb4

It is certainly possible to have more than one dnd area on a template.

You just need to assign a unique name to each of the areas - and, looking at the example you shared, it appears that both of them have "dnd_area" as the name that is supposed to be unique.

Simply replace the second one to something like "main_section_dnd_area" and you should see two areas available in your template.

Oh excellent. Thank you so much. That seems to have worked.
