Hi,
how do I create a fouth sidebar in config.inc.php?

array(
'var' => 'sidebars',
'name' => MYTEMPLATE_TITLE,
'description' => MYTEMPLATE_SIDEBAR_DESC,
'type' => 'string',
'default' => 'left,hide,right,footer1,footer2,'
),

does not work ..

greetings
reinhard

From memory the sidebar name is restricted to 6 characters, try changing footer1 and footer2 to ftr1 and ftr2. See if that works.

Hi!

Did you save the templates configuration? If you want fixed sidebars, do not make that variable configurable but use

Code: Select all

$sidebars = 'left,hide,right,foot1,foot2';

Instead. Also, what carl said, applies too.

Regards,
Garvin

Thanks for the quick answers.
After modifying the names of the new sidebars (max 6 characters), it works.

Excellent. Is it a new template you're working on for release? Can we see it?

Hi Carl,
it`s a port of the glossyblue theme. You can see it on katalog-it.de as the default theme. But it did not finished the right sidebar.
The footer-sidebars are working now ...
