Geeklog Forums

hello everyone,
is there a way to make a piece of code appear only on the index (main, front) page (index.php)? i tried putting the code on the header template file but it shows on all pages. maybe there is some other file i could put it in... any suggestions?
thanks in advance!

You can use PHP in header.thtml, so you could call COM_onFrontpage (COM_isFrontpage in older Geeklog versions) to check where you are.

bye, Dirk

great! so there is a way.
i assume with an if? not sure how it goes.
i'm still kind of lost.
could you give me an example?
thanks a lot Dirk! geeklog rocks!

Ok Dirk i think i managed to fabricate a bit of code for this BUT when I publish it, it tells me that com_onfrontpage (and com_isfrontpage) is an undefined function. and actually i couldn't find it in lib-common.php -- any help will be gREATLy appreciated! i am pulling my hairs out :doh:

this is what i tried :



but as I said, the function is nowhere in sight... :helpme:

ok i haven't gotten a reply for this yet but i managed to work it out by using a block with the option to show it only in the main page.... in case anyone goes through the same... it's an alternative... and it worked for me... :twocents:
