Different template per category?

[Diego Bonilla]

Hi there!

I had a question about the Gelato CMS. This is EXACTLY what I need, but there is one problem.

Is it possible to use a different blog "template" for a post in a different category?

My plan is to build a website with themes and layouts, but I would need my themes' "template" (so to speak) to be different from my main news posts'.

So, is it possible?

If not, is there a way it can work? Some help would be VERY appreciative!

Thanks!

Hi,

You will need to change few lines in main index.php to add such function. In pseudo-code:

if (post_category==1)

 use theme1

else

 use theme2

Thank you so much! Hopefully this feature can be added to the actual code! There are other content systems that offer this, but I want to move away from complicated systems.

I'll see if I can get this going. If I can, I'll comeback and explain the process in case there are others out there that are curious. I'm not experienced at all in PHP, so wish me luck!
