How to add a right web part zone to a custom list page?

Question

Hi All:

When you create a Custom list in SP by default creates a page with the Quick Launch to the left and a Web Part zone to the right (Quick Launch | Main Web Part zone). However, I'd like to add another web part zone to the right (Quick Launch | Main Web Part zone | Righ Web Part zone) but I don't know how to do that. Can someone help me with this problem?.

Thank you very much

Best regards

Hi

yes, when you create a new List, as you said a Custom list, you can check or don't if you like that the list will appear in quick launch zone

By default SHP main page contain quick launch.

You can use SHP Designer to customize your site

Using SHP Designer, you can create your own customized page,

In that page you can insert new web parts, and customize how that page will look like

For start, check this MS official doc

Thanks for your answer but my problem is the following: to add another web part zone to the page that Sharepoint generates when you create a Custom list (or any other element).

Hi

by default SHP generate for each list and library 3 forms

NewForm.aspx, EditForm.aspx, DispForm.aspx

To customize one of these forms, use SHP

Connect to your site using an admin account

Select from left side Lists and Libraries, then select your list

In the right side, you can see all of these 3 forms, and just in the upper corner a button "New". Select it

In the new window, name it ( the new form )

select which type of form do you want, and alos set as default

After you click OK , you will can see this new form with those 3 old forms

Now what you have to do is to select it, right click mouse and edit it

Enjoy the customizations!
