How De I Edit the Home Page?

I'm not completely sure I know what you're asking, but it
sounds like you
need to know where the "homepage" of a Plone
site comes from.
 
Basically, the way I do it to override the default and
control the look and
feel of the content pane of my site is to create a new
python script called
"index_html.py", and it needs to have in it one
line:
 
return context.homepage()
 
homepage.pt then must exist in a "skin" (see
portal_skins in the ZMI) or
"custom" to be found.  This is now your
"main" page and can be edited to do
whatever you want using HTML, tal expressions, etc.
 
In the ZMI, under portal_properties/site_properties there is
a
"default_page" list of values.  Here is where I
specify "index_html" as the
first line item.
