CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

You will need to do a code change for this. You can change the code at:

CRM/Core/Invoke.php

line 74, you can make that conditional on the frontend ($config->userFrameworkFrontend)

I'm kinda surprised that this has not come up before. We should not display the sidebar for the frontend by default. Can you please file an issue for 2.0

thanx

Well...this is not really a big deal for me, because the front end works, but....the sidebar also disappeared in the backend. There's probably a way to get it back, but it is not vital for me since you can still get what you need in the backend through "Administer CiviCRM"

Also minor, but should be noted: The page title displays as "CiviContribute" or "CiviEvent" instead of the normal Joomla behavior which would display the title of the menu item created. Again, only a minor issue and it will not delay my pages going live.

Using 1.9.11960 with Joomla 1.0.13

I originally saw the demo with no sidebar which also left me perplexed.

I'm also having session problems..."Could not find valid key" and tried any and ALL solutions suggested in this forum with no luck. These problems may not be related, and I can post elsewhere if necessary....but I'm basically at a dead end.

My test page is here: http://www.ushf.org/2008/index.php?option=com_civicrm&Itemid=123

Sure, what time zone are you in ?

I'm busy M-W except for very early and late in the work day...flexible TH & FR. I'm in mountain time zone (Denver).

I was curious to know if the issue is resolved because I have exactly the same problem in the Joomla front end.
Is it a simple way to disable  the left sidebar on the front end?

Thanks
