Devs,

I've been waiting for things to calm down before asking this question. I believe now is as good a time as any...

Back in the olden days of v0.7 I had created a .fv file that allowed me to format the main page of http://www.cfas.org/ without using tables. I was rather happy to have been able to figure that one out.

Now I'm working with v0.8 at SVN head with the patch from FOR-796. My forrest.properties file has these entries:
project.theme=pelt
project.required.plugins=org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.pdf,org.apache.forrest.plugin.internal.dispatcher,org.apache.forrest.themes.core,org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.Text,org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.OpenOffice.org,org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.PhotoGallery

I've looked at my old index.fv and a few of the other .fv's in the forrest tree but I can't figure out how to update it so that I get something other than a blank page.

I'm looking for a template for each page that I can modify, more like tweak slightly, for the index page. I essentially need to add one hook after the content-title section:
               <forrest:hook name="rightbar">
                   <forrest:contract name="extra-info"/>
               </forrest:hook>
(from the 0.7 version .fv file).

Any suggestions?

The default .fv for pelt is:

whiteboard/plugins/org.apache.forrest.themes.core/themes/pelt.fv
