#169626

Hello Guys,

I’m building a template for a client of mine with the T3 framework. But I’m having a problem. I want to hide the left module (or the right module) when I click on the read more button from an article on the frontpage.

This is my frontpage.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="absolute" type="modules" style="raw">absolute</block>
<block name="help" type="help" main-inner="1">help</block>
<block name="sponsors" type="sponsors" main-inner="1">sponsors</block>
<block name="header" type="header" style="raw"></block>
<block name="slider" type="slider" main-inner="1">slider</block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user1,user2,user3,user4,user5</block>
<block name="top-panel" type="modules" main-inner="1">top-panel</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="25">
<block name="left1" width="35">position-7</block>
<block name="right1" width="25">position-5</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block>
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="footer" type="footer"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

This is my default.xml file (for all the other pages)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="absolute" type="modules" style="raw">absolute</block>
<block name="help" type="help" main-inner="1">help</block>
<block name="sponsors" type="sponsors" main-inner="1">sponsors</block>
<block name="header" type="header" style="raw"></block>
<block name="slider" type="slider" main-inner="1">slider</block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user1,user2,user3,user4,user5</block>
<block name="top-panel" type="modules" main-inner="1">top-panel</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="27">
<block name="left1">position-7</block>
<block name="right1">position-5</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block>
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="footer" type="footer"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

At this point the left module is flipping when I click on the article item (see my screenshot)

The good one!
.
The bad one!

Can you guys help me out?

Thanks in advance.

I believe you have the ability to assign which modules appear on which pages within the parameters of each module – including those set to display within the left and/or right positions. Have you looked through the individual modules that are giving you issues?

I’ve checked these settings. But the left module with the program is only assigned to the home menu-button. Is it possible to assign it just to the frontpage en not the page behind it?

Thanks in advance

Tell you what . . . Send me a PM with temporary access to your site administration and I will take a look to see how you have things configured.

Thanks for the tip, but I’m using joomla since the first day and I know Joomla! pretty well. And I’ve looked all over the web for a solution. But I can’t find it. If you have a link with a solution, you’re welcome!

@tomc –> PM send

I’ve found the error, it was a closing div programming fault of mine! :S

But still I want to remove the left module on reading the full article. Is it possible with this?

<?php $view = JRequest::getVar('view', 0); ?>
<?php if ($view != "article") { ?>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="user1" style="xhtml"/>
<?php } ?>

I’m so happy it was your fault . . . I was going crazy trying to figure out the issue here. :p

I’m wondering if you tweaked something that is causing that calendar to display on the article pages – because NONE of the configurations either in the module itself or the articles are calling it out for the article pages – so it’s somewhat of a mystery.

I already submitted this as a Support Ticket – and Troy Hall responded to you.
Did you look through the links he provided for you?

Hey, thanx for your time! I’ve used the left module as an iframe. Which is a module on the left side.

And sorry, I didn’t got any messages from Troy Hall.

Can he resend his message?

Yes, you can have any menu on any page with any layout if you use the page assignments combined with template assignments combined with module page assignments.
😀
you can LITERALLY have a different template for every page

See our wiki and Joomla !.7 docs ( for module / template assignments )

Not sure what happen to the ticket.
