If you are new to zen cart, you SHOULD NOT touch the tpl_main_page as it controls the whole website not only the index page. Any edits to the tpl_html_header should only be performed if you are certain of what you are doing and already have backup.

There is no such thing as tpl_main_page for the home page. Home page has it's own template file tpl_index_default.

We would need to see your site to know what your setup is.
Let's continue the discussion in this thread only, and not in the other thread where you posted the identical question.

actually i am new forum so i mistakely post it at that place and i dont know how to delete it now...........

ok the site is http://w w w.p o o l s p l u s p a t i o.c o m/index.php?main_page=shop and i put spaces here beacause i dont want to list it on search engine please remove spaces to check it this is the link of other page

http://w w w.p o o l s p l u s p a t i o.c o m/index.php?main_page=index this is the link of home page and now for check see the rss and facebook and twitter link

when i change tpl_header.php in my custom template its effect on all the page other than home page and you can see the difference by clicking on facebook and twitter link

i want to know why index page is not accepting the changes i made in my custom template tpl_header.php and from where its actually taking its code.

Not sure what is happening yet, but I do notice that your home page has no HTML <body> element in its view source:

HTML Code:

</script>
</head>

<div class="header_pad"><div class="header_pad_left">
  <div style="margin:0 auto;padding-left:775px;">
  <!--// bof: currencies //-->

The Online Shop page is okay:

HTML Code:

</script>
</head>

<body id="shopBody">

<div class="header_pad"><div class="header_pad_left">
  <div style="margin:0 auto;padding-left:775px;">
  <!--// bof: currencies //-->

as is a category page:

HTML Code:

</script>
</head>

<body id="indexBody">

<div class="header_pad"><div class="header_pad_left">
  <div style="margin:0 auto;padding-left:775px;">
  <!--// bof: currencies //-->

You should have
<body id="indexHomeBody">
in the home page source.

What do you have in your template copy of tpl_main_page.php around the <body id=" line?

**ssuunnyy18** · 14 May 2011, 04:46 PM

sir i have this code in my tpl_main_page.php

<body id="<?php echo $body_id . 'Body'; ?>"<?php if($zv_onload !='') echo ' onload="'.$zv_onload.'"'; ?>>

**gjh42** · 14 May 2011, 04:46 PM

For reference, the stock version of tpl_main_page.php has

PHP Code:


  $body_id = ($this_is_home_page) ? 'indexHome' : str_replace('_', '', $_GET['main_page']);
?>
<body id="<?php echo $body_id . 'Body'; ?>"<?php if($zv_onload !='') echo ' onload="'.$zv_onload.'"'; ?>>

What does your
$body_id =
line look like?

**ssuunnyy18** · 14 May 2011, 04:50 PM

sir i have this code above body tag in my tpl_main_page.php

if($this_is_home_page)
{
include DIR_WS_TEMPLATE."common/splash.php";
exit();
}

// 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;
}

$header_template = 'tpl_header.php';
$footer_template = 'tpl_footer.php';
$left_column_file = 'column_left.php';
$right_column_file = 'column_right.php';
$single_column_file = 'column_single.php';
$body_id = ($this_is_home_page) ? 'indexHome' : str_replace('_', '', $_GET['main_page']);
?>

is this code creating the problem???
