Question

I am working on a two column template in joomla 2.5. I want to make it as three column with an addition of right sidebar only on the front page and rest of the pages only two columns (Left side and content area).

I did the necessary changes in index.php, css, xml files and created a right sidebar. But it affected all the pages. Should I create a separate template for the right sidebar or download any extensions?

Answer 1

You can also do this by admin panel.

Go to extensions->module manager

Choose one of the menu module types (I choose ‘Menu example’)

Enable it

Choose position

scroll down, actually second page, choose position-6, which is Beez5 or Beez_20 top right.

Make sure the menu is enabled for all pages that you want it to be.

Save and close.
