Using a different .tpl file

[Guest johnsimpson]

Hi guys,

Is it possible to use a different tpl file rather that the default one?

I am creating a website where I want a different homepage to the rest of the site, which I have done so far but my problem is that the ViewProd page uses the global index.tpl file... I would rather it used the global cart.tpl as i've templated this one the way i want it and I want it to include the category navigation?

thanks

John

I'm confused, for the homepage do you want to use the global 'cart.tpl' file instead of the global 'index.tpl'?

If so, edit within: includes/global/index.inc.php

FIND this:

$body = new XTemplate ("global".CC_DS."index.tpl");

CHANGE to this:

if (empty($_GET['_a'])) {

	/* Global template for homepage */

	$body = new XTemplate ("global".CC_DS."cart.tpl");

} else {

	/* Global template for all other pages */

	$body = new XTemplate ("global".CC_DS."index.tpl");

}
