I need to shift the main content with spotlights 1 and 2 to the left and have a sidebar on the right on the Home Page. I have duplicated the mainbody php file and am trying to shift the Main Content block to the left. How do I do that?

Hi

You should load inside your layout php file as mainbody the block one-sidebar-right.php contained in templatesja_biztplsblocksmainbody folder

Example :

assuming your layout is loading the default.php file then you should edit templatesja_biztplsdefault.php

<div class="t3-wrapper"> <!-- Need this wrapper for off-canvas menu. Remove if you don't use of-canvas -->

<?php $this->loadBlock('top-header') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('header') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('mainbody') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('masshead') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('navhelper') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('footer') ?>

</div>

Should change to

<div class="t3-wrapper"> <!-- Need this wrapper for off-canvas menu. Remove if you don't use of-canvas -->

<?php $this->loadBlock('top-header') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('header') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('one-sidebar-right') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('masshead') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('navhelper') ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock('footer') ?>

</div>

I cloned the home style and created one called home-sidebar2. It is loading the mainbody-home.php file. If I change the loadBlock from ‘mainbody-home’ to ‘one-sidebar-right’ as you suggest I get a “Block not found!” in the Layout when I reload.

Could you send me via Private Message a super user account to your backend ?

Hi

There was my mistake in the code showed above it should be

<?php $this->loadBlock('mainbody/one-sidebar-right') ?>

instead of

<?php $this->loadBlock('one-sidebar-right') ?>

Btw i applied this code to the default.php file and it loads correctly in the JA Biz Default style

It doesn’t loads in your modified style

Hi there,
It is the home.php that needs to be revised not the default.php. I need the spotlight1 and spotlight2 positions and sidebar2.

Thanks for your help.

You can change any php file adding

<?php $this->loadBlock('mainbody/one-sidebar-right') ?>

where it says

<?php $this->loadBlock('mainbody') ?>

The home.php and default.php have much different components. home.php contains the block ‘mainbody-home.php that contains the spotlight1 and 2 components and the sidebar1.

I have been trying to figure out how to move the components to the left and have the sidebar2 on the right. See attached image.

thanks.
