| + | Say you have three pages with the slugs //index//, //about//, //contact// and sidebars as components named //peter//, //paul// and //mary// you would edit your template to replace <code><?php get_component(sidebar); ?></code> with | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | <?php if (return_page_slug()=='index') {get_component('peter');} | ||
| + | elseif (return_page_slug()=='about') {get_component('paul');} | ||
| + | else {get_component('mary');} ?> </code> | ||

| + | =====A System for Different Components on Different Pages===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The Components might contain a header image, sidebar content, tagline text, anything. If you only want one page to be different it might be simplest to just make a duplicate page template, but if you want them different on each of several pages here is how. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The following text needs to be in a functions.php file in your theme folder: | ||
| + | <file php><?php | ||
| + | if (!function_exists('component_exists')) { | ||
| + | function component_exists($id) { | ||
| + | global $components; | ||
| + | if (!$components) { | ||
| + | if (file_exists(GSDATAOTHERPATH.'components.xml')) { | ||
| + | $data = getXML(GSDATAOTHERPATH.'components.xml'); | ||
| + | $components = $data->item; | ||
| + | } else { | ||
| + | $components = array(); | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | $exists = FALSE; | ||
| + | if (count($components) > 0) { | ||
| + | foreach ($components as $component) { | ||
| + | if ($id == $component->slug) { | ||
| + | $exists = TRUE; | ||
| + | break; | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | return $exists; | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | ?></file> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Make a component which will be the default component and call it say //default//. Make components for specific pages and name them to include the page slug of the page into which they are to be inserted, so name them say //content-about// and //content-contact//. Then call the component in your page template as follows: | ||
| + | <code php> | ||
| + | <?php if (component_exists('content-'.get_page_slug(false))) | ||
| + | {get_component('content-'.get_page_slug(false));} | ||
| + | else {get_component('default');} ?></code> | ||
