    Add a document type to an existing template?

    I have a master template on my site that does not have a document type. It is just basic structure of the site including the top nav and a side nav etc along with a bodyConent area where the pages put their stuff. 

    However I have a requirment now to add a managable bit of text on the side nav that is in the master template.  Something a content editor can edit. 

    What would be the best way add an editable property to a master template?  Would I add document type it? Or is there a better way?

    Hi Brad

    Is it a text that should stay the same on all pages on the website? I mean is it a general text?

    I would probably add a new property on the "home/frontpage" document type and then create a macro to render the text, which would be placed on the master template in the sidebar section of your markup.

    Hope this helps.

    /Jan
