News Box on the Central Column of Front Page

[hungoveragain]

I have installed News Box Manager on my site, however I would like for the news box to appear only on the front page, and only at the bottom of the central column.

Failing this is there any way I can limit this box to appearing on the front page only?

I have a reasonably good understanding of php, css & sql.

Thanks

Mike

I don't know this mod but in general there are a couple of ways of getting things to display only on the home page. There are php solutions but the easiest is a css solution.

Find the ID of the element in question. Lets make it a <div> with the ID of 'thiselement'.

First set the display to none with a rule like:

#thiselement{display:none;}

This means that it won't display on any page. Then we just set it to display on the home page by adding another rule:

#thiselement{display:none;}
#indexHomeBody #thiselement{display:block;}

So, you just need to find the ID of the element that contains the news thingy....
