[SOLVED] [SUPERB ANSWER!] How can i make the RightColumn appears only on homepage and not on subpages?

[Jeff Simons Decena]

I have been hooking the right column to homepage only and not on subpages but no luck.. any clues on how to do this??

Right now, what i am doing is, hooking the right colum after the homefeatured block so it will just display on the homepage but after some trial an error, it is still not showing.

Here is code (in footer.tpl)

            {if $page_name == 'index'}

               {$HOOK_RIGHT_COLUMN}

           {/if}

No problem and please edit your first post and add [sOLVED] the front of the title.

if you may know also, the "div" holding the center area is "center column" which is the same with the one with the homepage. Would you know which file would i modify if I like to change the width of the center column of the subpages? It is currently like 600px (width) and on the subpages i like 800px. I hope i am clear.

Not sure but i am guessing what you trying to do.
All css is in global.css there you can add for example

body#index div#center_column{width:600px}

That way only on homepage width will be 600px and for rest it will be

body {width:800px}

it it because globally it is using #center_column

The reason i am asking where is the file to be modified so i can modify the div on the subpages (eg.#center_column1) so I can control the width of the div on the subpages.

In theme directory there are tpl files like product.tpl, category.tpl where you can add additional div but I think that is not good way.You need to edit a lot of files.

Like in previous post you can control some pages style (width)by changing css like

body#index div#center_column
body#product div#center_column
body#category div#center_column
body#order div#center_column
body#new-products div#center_column
