Add ExtraContent to Your Stacks Library

I’m sure you’ve read recently of the launch of YourHead’s Stacks 1.0 and are aware at just how brilliantly powerful Stacks is. I’ve also showed you a tutorial using Stacks, Pluskit and ExtraContent together to make some brilliant layouts in your ExtraContent areas, but what if you could use Stacks and ExtraContent together, with no code, no snippets?
Playing around with the Stacks API last night brought me to that very end. I wrote the ExtraContent Stacks Plugin, a Stacks Library component that you just drag into your stack page like you would any other stack. Click the info button, enter the value ExtraContent area you want it to occupy and that’s it. Just build what you want inside that stack… images, code, columns… and when you preview it in your ExtraContent enabled theme it renders in the ExtraContent area of your choice!
So what makes this so cool is that now ExtraContent is for everyone. I mean we did a pretty good job of making it as user friendly as possible with the tiny snippets of code, but there are some who will still get a little queasy at the site of that four letter word, code. So this option of using ExtraContent as a stack really is the way to go for those people.
