Home page different from catalog page
 

I really need help badly.

My client wants to have the home page different from catalog pages.

He want to have some things go away basically from the home page (left nav) when
you get to the catalog and other pages.

Can someone please help me with the code to be able to do that?

thanks in advance!!

Re: Home page different from catalog page
 

To only show something on the home page, use this:

{if $main eq "catalog" and $current_category.category eq ""}

to HIDE something if it's not the home page:

{if $main eq "catalog" and $current_category.category ne ""}

obviously, a closing {if} as needed.

Thanks carpeperdiem!!

Can you tell me where I put this code? like which page or template? I'm still a tad confused on that?

thanks

Ah... what template is what?

Webmaster Mode

You should probably start with the FAQ about template editing...
