About category columns?

[Romario]

Sorry, my English is no good.
How make 1 categories columns in main categories in index.php and 2 columns in subcategory pages.

This would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve, since both use the same template.

I *think* it might be possible by setting up a separate template page for the subcategory pages, then doing an if-else statement, something like "if_home" in wp.... but I am decidedly NOT a programmer, so I don't actually know if this is possible.

If it were me, Romario, I'd check with the smarty folks at http://www.phpinsider.com/smarty-forum/index.php - that's the forum for the templating engine phpLD uses.

Hello Romario,

Thanks

Hello Romario,

Yes I understand, and it's what I thought too just wanted to confirm.

I've got to go to town, but when I get back I'll see about doing this for you. Doesn't sound to hard like the posters above suggested.

Yo Romario,

I decided to do this before I left.

Open up templates/main.tpl

Find
Content visible to registered users only.

Replace with
Content visible to registered users only.

[Ap0s7le]

You're welcome :)

BJ, you offered nothing to the thread in the first place so please don't criticize me. Next time before posting please stop and think "Am I going to help this person?" If the answer is no, don't waste our time.

Thanks

PS
I didn't add a table ;)
