Hi, love the template but I need help with an ad-on we have decided to use. site is https://www.aprons4you.com . I have added wordpress and I would like to disable the right hand side boxes like on the products page, and I'm having a hard time getting the side content to stay in the sidebox on that page. Works great on all current pages but is messed up on the blog page itself. Thanks for any ideas that you might have to help fix this.

Thanks,

Richard

open includes/templates/glacial_age/common/tpl_main_page.php

find the following line of code (around line 46) and make the highlighted change.

if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'specials,products_new,featured_products,products_all,wordpress')) ) {
$flag_disable_right = true;
}

save the file and upload to your server

Great! that fixed the sideboxes on the right side, thank you very much for that. I still have 1 problem, the information that is supposed to be in the sidebox is in the middle of the page. on homepage it is correct, on blog page it's in middle of page... calendar, and archive..

Thanks for the super fast response!

I'm not sure I understand, the blog sidebox appears directly below the categories sidebox both on the home page and the wordpress page.

Yes the box is there, but the contents of the box, calendar, Archives are in the center of the page on the wordpress page instead of in the sidebox like on the main page. I have not tested with IE maybe it's working with that browser? I'll check that also, but it is still messed up with Firefox.

Here's a FF screenshot of the site on the wordpress page.

Look fine to me.

ok oddly enough, i added another sidebox and that fixed the problem of it being in the middle, now i just need to make it look flush instead of different boxed.

Strange, I could never get it to look like that? I don't know, I'll try again, thanks again for all of your help.

Richard

Ok, now that it is working good for me, I don't know what was going on but it has fixed itself or I did something and don't know what. But, how do I make that now look like the categories box with a bottom making it look finished? I hope that makes sense.

open includes/templates/glacial_age/css/stylesheet.css

add the following declaration

#sidebar{
padding: 0.3em 0.3em 1em 0.3em;
background-image:url(../images/sidebox_content_bg.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:bottom;
font-size: 1em;
line-height:normal;
}

thanks that made it able for me to find it, if anyone else is trying this, the sidebar name that it is given is #wpsidebar.leftboxcontainer that is the only change, with that it has worked for the most part, just need to get rounded edges on the top now.

Once again,

Thank You very much for all of your help.

The reason I provided this
#sidebar{
padding: 0.3em 0.3em 1em 0.3em;
background-image:url(../images/sidebox_content_bg.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:bottom;
font-size: 1em;
line-height:normal;
}

Was because this is what was shown in the view source of the page(s)

If you try using the above without any modifications I think you'll find that the sidebox header will line up correctly.

Hmm I also do see that on my source page, but with that code, it doesn't do anything, no changes at all? I will try again though as I'd like my code to be clean and correct. Thank you for letting me know that, I'm off to go try it out again.

Thanks,

Richard

Ok, I must have been looking at it too long yesterday, I re-input the code the way you show and it works perfect? I don't know what the heck I was doing.

Love the Skin,

Thanks for all the help,

Richard
