? Right column not displaying in template 241

[schoolboy]

I am not saying that tpl_main_page.php IS your problem... but that it MIGHT be your problem...

Look at the long list of commented code at the top...

If you see anything were the following line is being rendered ACTIVE

$flag_disable_right = true; 

Then it is possible that this is your issue. You can DE-activate it by COMMENTING it out - probably by putting an asterisk in front of it (if it is still in this header text)

 *  $flag_disable_right = true; 

... or by using php comment tags //

//  $flag_disable_right = true; 

Look also at the line that says:

// the following IF statement can be duplicated/modified as needed to set additional flags
  if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'list_pages_to_skip_all_right_sideboxes_on_here,separated_by_commas,and_no_spaces')) ) {
    $flag_disable_right = true;
  } 

if the text:

list_pages_to_skip_all_right_sideboxes_on_here,separated_by_commas,and_no_spaces 

... is not there, and you see a list of pages being referenced instead, (EG: index,contact_us,checkout_shipping,shopping_cart,...)

Then DELETE all these page names, so that the lines of code look like this:

// the following IF statement can be duplicated/modified as needed to set additional flags
  if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'')) ) {
    $flag_disable_right = true;
  } 

It is important to retain the php SYNTAX here... if you omit one single quote mark, you will break the page...

My example is proper syntax.

• Yes -- I understand that you are suggesting to just 'check' the tpl_main_page.php page and it may NOT be the issue.

• OK -- found all the commented code at the top and did find the PHP code "$flag_disable_right = true;" ...but it has the "*" in front of it so it's still a comment.

• This is the other reference to the right-column:

<?php
//if (COLUMN_RIGHT_STATUS == 0 || (CUSTOMERS_APPROVAL == '1' and $_SESSION['customer_id'] == '') || (CUSTOMERS_APPROVAL_AUTHORIZATION == 1 && CUSTOMERS_AUTHORIZATION_COLUMN_RIGHT_OFF == 'true' && $_SESSION['customers_authorization'] != 0)) {
if (COLUMN_RIGHT_STATUS == 0 || (CUSTOMERS_APPROVAL == '1' and $_SESSION['customer_id'] == '') || (CUSTOMERS_APPROVAL_AUTHORIZATION == 1 && CUSTOMERS_AUTHORIZATION_COLUMN_RIGHT_OFF == 'true' and ($_SESSION['customers_authorization'] != 0 or $_SESSION['customer_id'] == ''))) {
  // global disable of column_right
  $flag_disable_right = true;
}
if (!isset($flag_disable_right) || !$flag_disable_right) {
?>
<td id="navColumnTwo" class="columnRight">
<?php
 /**
  * prepares and displays right column sideboxes
  *
  */
?>
<div id="navColumnTwoWrapper"><?php require(DIR_WS_MODULES . zen_get_module_directory('column_right.php')); ?></div></td>
<?php
}
?>
  </tr>
