About widgets in article pages

Hello,

I'm looking for a mod that would let me have a widget in the front-page (content.php) but not in the articles page. Let say I would like to have a banner or a video in the front-page only...and when a person clicks on an article that banner is not there.. just in the front-page.

Can this be done?

You may create a widget and use a custom template with the widget (enter name into Configure screen) and then put a condition around the template to only show it on the main page.

Well, I'm not going to do it for you (and I can't since you didn't provide enough info), but copy the template that the widget uses (as I said, it is listed in the Configure screen) and put it in a new template and then put a condition around it - something like this:

HTML Code:

<vb:if condition="$_GET['r'] == '1-your-page-name' OR !$_GET['r']">

template code

</vb:if>

Thank you very much...

The only thing I have to change is where it says 1-your-page-name right?... that would be content.php right?

No, it would be the name of the home page. Many leave out that part of the condition because usually you get there via just clicking Home and then there is no r=whatever at the end of the url. But, if you go there via a link, it will have that attached at the end.

Get it

So the code would be like this... right?

Code:

<vb:if condition="$_GET['r'] == '' OR !$_GET['r']">

template code

</vb:if>
