But still not sure how to 'hide' the subsidiaries area I created on the home page template, on the other page templates that I've created. Is there a way to call a page template into the css stylesheet?</p> <p>ie. </p> <p> .main_pagetpl #subsidiary {<br /> display:none;<br /> }</p> <p>I found this link which points me in the right direction...can someone help me figure out how to add a class to #main within this loop in the page template?</p> <p>&lt;?php</p> <p> // calling the header.php<br /> get_header();</p> <p> // action hook for placing content above #container<br /> thematic_abovecontainer();</p> <p>?&gt; </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/get-rid-of-subsidiaries-on-certain-page-templates#post-15247 Tue, 31 Aug 2010 12:25:26 +0000 helgatheviking 15247@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>that code looks familiar to me.... though i am not sure thematic_belowmainasides is the right hook (i just dont remember off the top of my head right now). but try it again w/ fixing ehe error in your add_filter</p> <p>// Connect the filter to thematic_subsidiaries()<br /> add_filter('thematic_belowmainasides()', 'remove_widget_area_subsidiaries');</p> <p>should read</p> <p>// Connect the filter to thematic_subsidiaries()<br /> add_filter('thematic_belowmainasides', 'remove_widget_area_subsidiaries');</p> <p>note- the no () in the function names.</p> <p>you will catch errors like that if you use a text editor w/ syntax highlighting like notepad++, which is free. you should also turn on error reporting in your wp-config.php file as i'm surprised that one didn't kick up a php error w/ unexpected ) characters. open it, search for WP_DEBUG... it is currently set to false. set it to true while you are in development. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/get-rid-of-subsidiaries-on-certain-page-templates#post-15232 Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:46:30 +0000 him 15232@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>just reduce the footer height, and i think you will take care of the empty space.
