Remove Header Links & Breadcrumbs From Checkout

[games4gamers]

Is there a way to remove the header links and the breadcrumbs trail from the shopping cart -> checkout process set of pages? If so, how? I have the left & right columns removed, and I'd like to remove these things as well.

Thanks.

For the breadcrumbs try Admin/Config/Layout Settings/Define Breadcrumb Status and set to zero'0'.

When you say header links, are you referring to the banners displayed or menu options displayed within the header?

You will have to create a TPL set that is specific to the shopping cart page only.

1. I trust you have a custom template?

2. Create this folder (in the path shown)...

includes/templates/CUSTOM/shopping_cart/

3. Inside that folder, put a COPY of tpl_main_page.php (the original is in the common folder.)

4. Comment out the bit shown below:

<!-- bof  breadcrumb -->
<!--<?php if (DEFINE_BREADCRUMB_STATUS == '1' || (DEFINE_BREADCRUMB_STATUS == '2' && !$this_is_home_page) ) { ?>
    <div id="navBreadCrumb"><?php echo $breadcrumb->trail(BREAD_CRUMBS_SEPARATOR); ?></div>
<?php } ?>-->
<!-- eof breadcrumb -->

Save the file.

Okay thanks, these are the links I'm referring to: http://www.games4gamersonline.com/ze...ader_links.png

I don't want this gone on every page, just the shopping cart and checkout pages. Thanks.

Okay that worked fine for the shopping cart, but once you click checkout, the breadcrumbs are back. I found where the navigation links were and commented those out, but when I go to the shopping cart, the logo and such is gone too, which I don't want it to be.

<?php } ?>-->
<!-- eof breadcrumb -->

Save the file.

By creating a FOLDER with the same name as a given PAGE NAME, you create an OVERRIDE that is specific to THAT page. The procedure I have given above shows how it is done.

As you proceed through checkout, look in your browser address bar...

The page after shopping_cart is checkout_shipping, followed by checkout_payment, followed by checkout_success.

Create additional folders:-
checkout_shipping
checkout_payment
checkout_success

And then put COPIES of the TPL file you created earlier into these folders.

PS: It's rude to bump posts!

Thanks...how on earth can it be considered rude to bump a post? I could understand if it was a few minutes after a reply or something, but my bump was 2 or 3 days after the last reply. And on top of that, I indicated I was still having issues with it, so you sound like a total jerk saying I'm not allowed to ask for additional help....that's what this is, a help forum...sheesh.

This was a very active thread, and the jerk you speak of was the one who provided you with the advice you needed.

Two things:

It is still (on this forum) considered inappropriate to bump posts - regardless of how long they have been here.

The jerk who provided you help won't do so again.
