Try this:
1. Make yourself a new group, which for this example we'll call
News
2. Now, in Site.LocalTemplates, add this:
[[#frontpage]]
(:template each:)
(:div style="border:1px solid black;margin:5px;padding:5px;":)
!!!{=$Titlespaced}
(:include {=$FullName}:)
(:divend:)
[[#frontpageend]]
3. Finally, add this to your frontpage:
(:pagelist group=News list=normal order=-ctime count=1 fmt=#frontpage:)
4. Now all you have to do is add new pages to the News group and the
newest entries will be on the frontpage. Alternatively, you can do
something with page text variables to create on/off switches for pages
to be displayed. Or set it to include the first few lines of each News
item with a (more info...) link...
