Bestsellers box question

[Guest]

How can I have the bestsellers box appear on all pages, but not on the main index?

You just have to change includes/column_left.php to require the box on every page, then create an "if" statement that excludes it from the index page. Hope this helps

why not check out code form the current column files? there is a perfect example there ...

 

  if (substr(basename($PHP_SELF), 0, 8) != 'checkout') {
   include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'languages.php');
   include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'currencies.php');
 }

 

as you do not need checkout but index and not languages/currencies but bestsellers, change that

  if (substr(basename($PHP_SELF), 0, 8) != 'index') {
   include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'bestsellers.php');  }

 

really it was there for you to steal!

I just used that code and it gave me all kinds of errors. I just want the bestsellers box to appear anywhere other then the index page.

it should probably be

  if (substr(basename($PHP_SELF), 0, 5) != 'index') {
   include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'bestsellers.php');  }

 

or try

basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_ALL_BRANDS

  if (basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_DEFAULT) {
   include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'bestsellers.php');  }

 

when you get errors, it's always great to post them here

if you want to show the bestsellers box on all pages apart from index, comment out both references to trhe bestsellers box in this file, just like it was done a few lines below with //

 

in column left add this

if (basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_DEFAULT) {
  include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'best_sellers.php');  }

 

I did not notice this box had an underscore ...

[Guest]

It still only appears on one page, not all?
