Event Details in Full Page

[budd77]

Hi,

My event detail page has left & right modules displayed.

I want to have event details in full page getting rid of right/left modules.

How can I do that?

Thanks

Change your template and generate the left/right modules only if you are not in the JEvents detail view.

Thanks for your reply Thomas.

Do I need to do any coding for this?

Can you please suggest?

Your template file index.php is a php file and you need to do a little coding there. I give you an example for the beez template.
This template already determines whether to show the right column or not. At head of the file you'll find:

Code: Select all

$showRightColumn = $this->countModules('user1 or user2 or right or top');
$showRightColumn &= JRequest::getCmd('layout') != 'form';
$showRightColumn &= JRequest::getCmd('task') != 'edit'


Here you add a line to suppress the right column for JEvents in detail view:

Code: Select all

$showRightColumn = $this->countModules('user1 or user2 or right or top');
$showRightColumn &= JRequest::getCmd('layout') != 'form';
$showRightColumn &= JRequest::getCmd('task') != 'edit';
$showRightColumn &= ((JRequest::getCmd('task') != 'view_detail') || (JRequest::getCmd('option') != 'com_events'));

The coding depends on the template.
