ExtraContent is an open source method for getting additional content into places that most content management systems CMS can't reach.It was developed by a small innovativer group of RapidWeaver theme developers looking to extend the abilities of RapidWeaver beyond the two content areas typically allowed.

Many blog engines and CMS software are often limited to content being added to in either the main content area or the sidebar.
ExtraContent aims to change that.

RapidWeaver Classroom tackles seyDoggy’s Gotem theme

Ryan Smith over at RapidWeaver Classroom was awesome enough to make a VERY detailed movie about many aspects of the seyDoggy Gotem theme and ExtraContent. Ryan does an incredibly thorough and level headed job of outlining each ExtraContent area, some nifty tricks with Pluskit from Loghound.com, attaching images with assets and much more.
You might also notice a little promotional deal at the movies intro. You would be wise to take advantage of that kind of offer.

Great job as always Ryan. I had just purchased PlayMore, and needed to really understand the Extra Content abilities, so I am watching both your tutorials. You do an excellent job of hitting the details as you walk through, and for new users this is very much needed.
One thing that would be helpful – when you show how to do the Extra Content 3 section, where you pull in the Carousel page, it would be helpful to show the Carousel page so that you could see what it looked like as a separate page, then see how it shows up in the Extra Content section.
Really nice walk-through, I have a MUCH better overview and can now go ahead and experiment to get a hands-on feel, knowing I can come back and go over the screencast again.
