Hello,
I am trying to make some minor modifications to the OPAL template, and I would like to remove the Breadcrumbs and Search modules from the HOME page, but would like to keep them for all other pages.

I tried simply unpublishing the Breadcrumbs and Search modules, but that doesn’t remove the physical box from the page.

You can see what I mean here:

Does anyone know how I can accomplish this? I have searched, fiddled, tried….must be something simple I am not seeing.

Thanks in advance for any help! 😎

If you want to remove the whole Breadcrumbs body along with the search module, from all the pages

Take backup of your template index.php before trying this :

OPen your templates/ja_opal/index.php and around line 163 :

Remove the following block of code :

[PHP]<!– PATHWAY –>
<div id=”ja-pathway” class=”wrap”>
<div class=”main”>
<div class=”inner clearfix”>

<div class=”ja-pathway-text”>
<strong>You are here:</strong><jdoc:include type=”module” name=”breadcrumbs” />
</div>

<?php if ($this->countModules(‘user4’)) { ?>
<div id=”ja-search”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”user4″ style=”raw” />
</div>
<?php } ?>

</div>
</div>
</div>
<!– //PATHWAY –>[/PHP]

I think this would remove the modules from all the pages, to disable the display of the modules only from the frontpage or a particular page you have to use php module overrides.

Take a look over the forum here, search for php module overrides etc.. and same with on Joomla.org. It is kind of easy when got the right tutorial. It was just a topic recently here.

You will have to insert a certain code to the existing codes defining where the modules will not be displayed in the index.php of the template.

Thanks, yes you are correct — it removed the modules completely from all pages of the site. Ultimately, it’s ok though. I’m not sure I need a search option on my website anyways, but will look over what you suggested so that I can understand how to do it in case I want to keep these mods on other pages.
