1. Modify the DS / TO in TemplaVoila.
2. Add a new element to your DS.
3. Editing Type should be a "TypoScript Object Path", name it
something like: lib.mytestelement
4. Map it where you want to the element to be shown.
5. Add the content element and remember the UID of the content element.
6. Go into your template and add the following:
lib.mytestelement= COA
lib.mytestelement{
  10 = RECORDS
  10.tables = tt_content
  10.source = [UID OF YOUR CONTENT ELEMENT]
}

Clear the cache et voilà :)

Cheers,
Andy
