OK, have created a plugin at
error_generic that has this simple bit of code....
PHP Code:
$hide_stuff = "true";
And the in my template I have this....
HTML Code:
<if condition="$hide_stuff != 'true'">
<div style="width:300px;float:left;margin-bottom:5px;">
$poll_sidebar
</div>
</if>
Doesn't seem to be working though. Doesn't look like the template has the variable set.
