[geeklog-users] Theming Possibilities

[Kyle Rove]

So I could declare another set of block header and footer in the 
theme's function.php file? How do I find out the name of the blocks in 
the center?
$_BLOCK_TEMPLATE[?] = 'cen-content-blockheader.thtml, cen-content- 
blockfooter.thtml';

Go to the links then, to see the different center block html.
