Display individual sidebox on only one Ez Page

[creamcrackers]

Hi

Following the instructions here https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=249

if (!isset($ezpage_id) || !in_array($ezpage_id,explode(",",'2,5'))) {

This condition means that the template to display the sidebox will be called whenever the page is not an EZ-Page or, if it is an EZ-Page, it does not have ID 2 or 5

What i want is a condition that will display the sidebox only when it is an EZ page and only when that EZ page ID is X

I hope someone can help!

Ive also seen this

https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=270

if ($this_is_home_page) { ......

Could i change that to .,. if this is ez page id X then.......


How can i do this?

Thanks you

Yes, that will work, though it ignores the purpose of the $show_whatever flag.

How would this work with an overridden sidebox that does not contain the specified code:

 require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_order_history.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'sideboxes'). '/tpl_order_history.php');
    $title =  BOX_HEADING_CUSTOMER_ORDERS;
    $title_link = false;
    require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);

thanks!

here is my code :

<?php
// -----------------------------------
// MY CUSTOM SIDE PANEL ITEM
// -----------------------------------

  // test if box should be displayed
 
  $show_categories = true;

  if ($show_categories  == true) {

some html code;

}
?>
