Specific sideboxe to show on specific page only

[nicksab]

Hey everyone,

www.royal-fleur.com

I would to have a specific sideboxe appear on one specific page only.

I would like to have blank_sideboxe to appear only on www.royal-fleur/forist-sa-rafael-ca page only.

I look thru the forum and tried a few things but no luck. All i Found mostly was for ez page...

I tried the following code in modules/sideboxe/blank_sideboxe.php:

// test if box should display
$show_blank_sidebox = true;

if (in_array($_GET['main_page'], array(FILENAME_SAN_RAFAEL))) {
$show_blank_sidebox = true
} else
$show_blank_sidebox = false

if ($show_blank_sidebox == true) {
require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_blank_sidebox.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'sideboxes'). '/tpl_blank_sidebox.php');
$title = BOX_HEADING_BLANK_SIDEBOX;
$title_link = false;
require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);
}
?>

but it make the whole website disappear when i turn the sideboxe on. Only the header shows up

Please help me with this as I am a newbie when it comes to php programming

Thank you in advance

The basic principle is here - you'll have to adjust the code to reflect the page where you want to have the box display:

http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?...ll-other-pages

I read this tutorial but I am confused. This is for the home page

In my case, I want the sideboxe to show only on one page which is not the main page or an ez page

How do I modify this statement:

if ($this_is_home_page) {
$show_featured = true;
} else {
$show_featured = false;
}

so my sideboboxe shows up on the following page: www.royal-fleur.com/florist-san-rafael-ca only

The file name for this page is SAN_RAFAEL

Any help is more than welcome

Thank you

CSS may be easier...

If you want the sidebox to be hidden on ALL pages EXCEPT one specific page, then you create a declaration in the main stylesheet that says:

#mySidebox {display:none;}

Then you create a PAGE-SPECIFIC stylesheet (for whatever page you want that sidebox on) and change the declaration to:

#mySidebox {display:block;}

Look at the stylesheet README file in the main CSS folder (probably classic/css) for instructions on creating page-specific stylesheets.

SEE IT IN ACTION (sort of)...

GRAPHIC SIDEBOX is ON

I dont think CSS would work in my case. I planning on adding 5 specific sideboxe to 5 unique page so it would prob increase page load time.

so it would prob increase page load time.

The additional CSS is a single declaration... Maybe increases page load time by seven-trillionths of a second...

One problem may be that you have some stupid URL re-writer in place...

What is your objective for using a URL re-writer... they make life more challenging than it needs to be...

Even if I turn off the url rewriter, it does not work.

The correct page would be http://www.royal-fleur.com/index.php...age=san_rafael

How do i modify the code for it?

I don t want to use css because i would be adding too many specific page sideboxe and it will increase my main page load time which already slow from my swf soon to be jsquery.

Thank for your help with this
