Switch page template per view

[Robert]

Hey guys, i am wondering if it is at all possible to be able to switch page templates per view? So basically I would like to use one page template for event list (with right sidebar) and calendar (no right bar). Make sense?

The reason I ask this is because I am using a responsive layout for my site and the calendar gets scrunched up and unreadable. If what I am asking above is not able to happen, is there anyway to make the calendar responsive? Your help is appreciated.

Hey Robert. I don’t believe this is possible, but you may be able to hack something together…let me get Jonah (our dev) to take a look and respond directly.

Hi Robert,

Probably the easiest way to do this now is to use:


if(strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], "calendar/upcoming")) {
//do something
}


You will need to change ‘calendar’ to the string for your events page. This way you can conditionally display your sidebar and also add/modify your container markup to increase the width, i.e: http://pastebin.com/1hqzxjD3

I hope that helps,
Jonah
