I´m now starting this new project with the latest 2.0.16 and the so called built in themes, "default" and "x2t" are enough for what I´m currently doing, with a little tweak.

I need to fully remove the left column from showing up even when there are no blocks mounted to appear on the left column. Even if I remove all left column blocks from showing, "user block", "login block", "main menu block", a left column in blank space remains there, therefore rendering it useless.

Would anyone please help me out on this one, by making a module to use the full width of the screen? Thank you.

Wrap your left column code around the statement.
<{if !empty($xoops_lblocks)}><{/if}>

In "theme.html" file, right? Or not?

Thanks.

You can also try this in your theme.html file

Quote:
<{if $xoops_showlblock == 1}>
<td id="leftcolumn">
<!-- Start left blocks loop -->
<{foreach item=block from=$xoops_lblocks}><{include file="$xoops_theme/theme_blockleft.html"}><{/foreach}>
<!-- End left blocks loop -->
</td>
<{/if}>

Worked great! Thanks.

This is a must (fix) for many modules like forums. Switching no left right columns in one module to a 3 pane screen in another is great.

Now I use it all the time.

Thanks again for the great support.
