Zones are the places of your site where you want your headlines to appear.
You can customize how these zones look by defining several options called parameters.
However, there's an additional cool feature : You can customize a zone to display in a different way by overriding its zone parameters.

This video shows how you can use zone overriding to display headlines from multiple zones, using the zone code generator built into Absolute News Manager , change the sorting order and display archived articles.
