Show/Hide sideboxes based on page

[MeltDown]

That did it!! Thanks Kuroi

Another (related) question, if I may: The items on the page (such as "New Products For March" for example) are all now aligned to the right. Can you tell me how to center the page?

Thanks again!

Not sure what you mean. If you are referring to the site for which you have provided a link, I can't see this behavior, at least not in Firefox.

[MeltDown]

Sorry, I keep forgetting that I'm working on someone else's site now and need to provide that link!

As per your recomendation, I sucessfully added the following code to tpl_main_page.php to remove the sidebox from that page only.

if ($this_is_home_page == true) {
$flag_disable_left = true;
$flag_disable_right = true;
}

However, all items are pulling to the right and I was hoping to correct that.

thanks!

Ah. Yes. Now I see the problem.

The key piece of information not available when the earlier advice was given, was that you are basing your design on jettrue's Apple Zen template.

Unlike the default Zen Cart template that has a layout table designed to create some rigidity and support the site when left, right or both side columns are turned off, Jade designed Apple Zen specifically to work with two columns. Take the right hand one away and the structure collapses.

I recommend taking the question over to the Apple Zen support thread as Jade is the best person to answer it, but be prepared for the possibility that it simply wasn't designed to be able to do this.

[MeltDown]

OK, I'll take my question over to the Zen Apple thread. I didn't ask there in the first place because I've been pestering Jade with so many questions. I thought this one was more "Zen" and less template but I guess not...

Thanks - Tim

Since it seems related, I was wondering if you could help with my problem? I need to turn off the right hand column of sideboxes on all product info pages, but leave the column on everywhere else in the site. Is there an efficient way to do this? I know nothing about php, so please be as detailed as you can, if this is even possible.

[GrandmaJ]

Please disregard my question (above). I found a forum post where someone was trying to turn off sideboxes for his category pages, and I started toying around with the code that they gave him in order to see if I could figure out the pattern and make it work for products pages instead. It worked.

For anyone else trying to turn off the righthand sideboxes on ALL their product pages, I inserted the following in my tpl_main_page.php file, towards the top:


if ($current_page_base == 'product_info' and $products_id >= '') {
$flag_disable_right = true;
}


Please be warned that I'm a "PhP Dummy", so feel free to correct me if this code isn't technically right. All I know is that it works

There's a FAQ entry that covers this for a number of different situations.

I need to hide the Logo sidebox mod I added to my site when a use is on the main page only. Any ideas zenners? I read a few threads but none spoke to my situation specifically.
