Struggling with $flag_disable_left, right in tpl_main_page.php

[tcarden]

I'm struggling with turning off and on L & R columns, and have tried using the supplied code in tbl_main_page.php

as per instruction it's currently set at this -

if ($current_page_base == 'index' and $cPath == '') {
$flag_disable_left = true;
$flag_disable_right = false;
} else {
$flag_disable_left = false;
$flag_disable_right = true;
}

but on the index page the Left Col is still showing.

As a test i went into 'Layout Settings' and set Column Global both to off but that seems to override what is found in the page template code

i trying to get the the RH Column ON for the index page only. All other pages I need the LH On and the RH off.

what am ah doing wrong?!?



for EZ pages.... well,.... i'll get to that later ;-)

<?php if ($this_is_home_page) {
$flag_disable_right = true;
}

Much easier for EZ-pages... In the ADMIN PANEL under CONFIGURATION MENU there is a sub-menu for EZPAGE SETTINGS.

At the bottom of this selection are input fields where you just list the EZPAGE I.D. numbers for left/right column disable.

To find out the ID of an EZPAGE, just go to the EZPAGES edit grid (where you see all the green and red blobs) and the pages' I.D.'s are on the left column.

Wow, thanks.
