I'm using the xcart two column template and I want to hide the column on the home page x-cart 4.4. The code in template already hides that column on checkout and cart page.
Here is the original code that hides <div id="left-bar"> on checkout and cart page:

{if ($main neq 'cart' or $cart_empty) and $main neq 'checkout'}

Here's the code I tried but it doesn't work. I've tried many variation of this but nothing works.

{if ($main neq 'catalog' or $current_category.category neq "") or $main neq 'checkout' and ($main neq 'cart' or $cart_empty) }

Any ideas.

Thanks
