Is there an easy way to style the article_separator for the frontpage-layout differently from the blog-layout?

The only way I could think of is below but I didn’t know if there is built-in joomla frontpage style.


<?php if($tmpTools->isFrontPage()) : ?>
<div id="frontpage">
<jdoc:include type="component" />
</div>
<?php else : ?>
<jdoc:include type="component" />
<?php endif; ?>

Did that work for you?

You can use a diffrent template for any menu item. You just copy the template and re-name it, modify the style to the way you want it, and assign it to a menu item.

1. Ftp into your site and download the template folder.
2. Rename the local copy of the folder.
3. Open the css folder.
4 Change the css to suit your needs.
5. Open templateDetails.xml and change <name>template name</name> to <name>template name2</name>.
6. Save all files and upload the whole folder to the same templates directory via ftp.
7. Log in to the admin of your site.
8. Go to Extensions > Template Manager.
9. Click on the new template name.
10. In the menu assignment field, select the menus you want to assign the new template to then click save.
