Remove categories from front page

[stevesh]

Mine does this properly, and the categories.php code looks like this: (Not sure why the code double-spaced when I pasted it.)

<?php

/**

  if ($this_is_home_page) {

    $show_categories = false;

  } else {

    $show_categories = true;

  }



  if ($show_categories == true)

{

    $main_category_tree = new category_tree;

    $row = 0;

    $box_categories_array = array();



// don't build a tree when no categories

    $check_categories = $db->Execute("select categories_id from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " where categories_status=1 limit 1");

    if ($check_categories->RecordCount() > 0) {

      $box_categories_array = $main_category_tree->zen_category_tree();

    }



    require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_categories.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'sideboxes'). '/tpl_categories.php');



    $title = BOX_HEADING_CATEGORIES;

    $title_link = false;



    require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);

}

?>
