Homepage Layout with CSS3 Hover Effects - 8 Variations

[mona98]

Hello,
I am new to zencart and I have noticed that Anne creations are pretty awesome!
I have installed the Homepage Layout with CSS3 Hover Effects - 8 Variations and it works great. However I am having a problem as it appears that my original index page appears below the new page (homepage layout hover effects). I am wishing to remove the original index and just use the homepage layout but have no idea how to do this.

Can someone please help me with this? It would be greatly appreciated.
I have uploaded a screenshot.

Thanks in advance.

In my template (Abbington Mega), I had to empty the text from my define main page. I'm not sure if your problem is the same, but you may want to check in your define pages editor that the main page is completely blank, no returns, spaces, etc.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply. I am using the piccadilly posh template. I have tried removing everything from define main page and still no luck I can't seem to figure this one out. For some reason its like my original main page is still there, just to the bottom of the homepage layout.

Maybe I misunderstood your other post. Do you want to keep the right and left hand columns on the home page and add the homepage layout between them?

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
I would like to remove the columns from the main page, however when I remove those columns, it removes those columns for the whole site not just the homepage (which I don't want). Also maybe I may be a little confused because even when I do remove the columns I still get this white space underneath the homepage layout as if it is a partial blank page and then there is the footer. I will take a look at the FAQs.

Thanks

You should also turn off all of the centerboxes for the main page in admin--configuration--index listing.

Everything under the index listing is set to 0. I have also turned off the sideboxes but turning off sideboxes removes sideboxes from every page (this I don't want). I have searched FAQs for how to disable sideboxes on main page only but no luck. This screen shot is what I get after I turn everything off.

Hi I just installed this mod and it looks great, thank you for your work. I came across this post and am trying to do exactly what you say here. I am trying to keep my left and right columns with this mod between both columns. For some reason, the columns are there but stay below the hover effects instead of to the right and left. Here is the link to the site www.casablancafurnitureinc.com. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Never mind, I was able to figure it out.
I needed to update the original "tpl_main_page" file instead of replacing the whole file with the one included in the module.

For those interested:
I copied <?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_homepage_hover_effects_1.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common'). '/tpl_homepage_hover_effects_1.php');?> and placed it under the "contentMainWrapperb" (I am using cherryzen template). I then updated stylesheet.css by adding margin-top:-400px on the #navColumnOne and #navColumnTwo and it worked for me.

Never mind, this actually did not work out as I hoped. It added the hover effects to all pages. I would like it to display on the home page only but with the left and right columns on both sides of it. Still looking for help.
