How to remove Sideboxes on checkout?

**emilfalcon** · 29 Sep 2007, 01:11 AM

Hi,

I would like to remove all the sideboxes when someone is checking out, so as to remove any distractions as much as possible when they are entering their credit card details in this crucial last part of a purchase process. I think this is possible to do with ZenCart, but am unsure how.

Would anyone be able to provide me with some insight as to how to do this via this admin (or do I need to edit a file)?

Thanks in advance!

You can do a global sidebar disable in admin > Configuration > Layout Settings > Column Left/Right Status - Global.

For selective disabling you need to edit /includes/templates/your_template/common/tpl_main_page.php. There are instructions in the comments at the top of that file.

Is there a way to selectively remove *some* of the sideboxes??

For a relatively small number of boxes, you can hide them with CSS on desired pages. This makes use of the page id applied to the body, and the id applied to each sidebox.

If you want to hide the categories box on the login page, you can add to your stylesheet

Code:

#loginBody #categories {display: none;}

You can use view source to find the page id and box id:

<body id="loginBody"

<div class="leftBoxContainer" id="categories"
