[TYPO3] different template on 2nd level

[Matthew Manderson]

I achieve it this way:

globe
|--www (shortcut to index)
    |--home
    |--page1
    |--page2
    |--page3
    |--page4

This allows me a main root template on the 'www' page for the whole site and
a second home page only template on 'home'

When people arrive at your site, they'll hit 'www' first but because it is
now a shortcut they actually see 'home'.

You can then use the template object browser on the 'home' page to overwrite
the template settings so it displays how you want. 

This has the spin off advantage of allowing a Navigation with 'home' as your
home page on the same level.

If you change the alias of 'home' to 'index' then if you use simulate static
or realurl it will show in the browser as /index.html which is more
conventional than /home.html

There are other ways but this is one of them.

Try it and post back,
Matthew
