Show/Hide sideboxes based on page

marton_1:

Sorry to drag up an old thread.

I have been experimenting with not showing side columns on certain pages.

I used the prepared code in tpl_main_page.php to stop columns on the home page which works fine.

But does not stop columns for other pages, I assume the page name is this guy? <title>Accessories</title>
So the code to I used is
if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'Accessories')) ) {
$flag_disable_right = true;
}

Probably I did something dumb :(

<title>Accessories</title>

Post a link to your site please.

Thank you for your interest.

Here is a link to my site page in question, this page is in English - the site pages are also in German language!

You may want to try

if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'cPath=81_67')) ) {
$flag_disable_right = true;
} 

I could be wrong though.....

Good idea but did not work.  I also tried with the full url but no luck.

I think it was done this way, but I have not tried.

if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'index&cPath=81_67')) ) {
$flag_disable_right = true;
}  

Sadly still does not work.

I also tried stopping side boxes in EZ pages with the following but also did not work - luckily I can turn these off in the admin.

// the following IF statement stops side columns on EZ *
if (in_array($ezpage_id,explode(",",'2,5'))) {
$flag_disable_right = true;
}

I am using V1.5.1 with the classic green template :)

If you want to turn it off when the category is 67, have you tried:

if ($current_category_id == 67 ) {
  $flag_disable_right = true;
}

Great, that works

Many many thanks

Thanks for the update that this worked for you ... :smile:
