set products to use 1 column

I see there appears only one masshead image here . Please let me know about "double masshead" you mentioned.

Hi Sherlock,

Please take a look again.

This is what my 1column.phtml looks like:

HTML Code:

<!-- BEGIN: MAIN CONTAINER -->
<div id="ja-container" class="ja-lo-1col wrap">
	<div class="main clearfix">

			<div id="ja-mainbody" class="clearfix">
				<!-- Breadcrums -->
					<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('breadcrumbs') ?>
				<!-- // Bbreadcrums -->
				
				<!-- BEGIN: CONTENT -->
					<div id="ja-main">
					

					
						<div class="inner clearfix">
						
					<!-- MASS TOP -->
					<?php if ($this->getChildHtml('mass-top1')) : ?>
					<div id="ja-mass-top" class="ja-mass">
					  	<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('mass-top1') ?>
					</div>
					<?php endif; ?>
					<!-- //MASS TOP -->
						
					     <!-- global messages -->
						<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('global_messages') ?>
						<!-- // global messages -->

						<div id="ja-current-content" class="clearfix">
						  <!-- primary content -->
						  <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('content') ?>
						  <!-- // primary content -->
						</div>

						</div>
					</div>
		       <!-- END: CONTENT -->
			</div>
	  
	</div>
</div>
<!-- END: MAIN CONTAINER -->

And the custom layout refference I put into the category:

HTML Code:

<reference name="mass-top1">
			<block type="joomlart_jmmasshead/core" name="jmmasshead"  >
					   <action method="setData"><name>title</name><value>skateboards</value></action>
					   <action method="setData"><name>background</name><value>wysiwyg/banner-catalog.jpg</value></action>
			    </block>
</reference>

The mentioned snippet of code:

<!-- MASS TOP -->
<?php if ($this->getChildHtml(‘mass-top1’)) : ?>
<div id="ja-mass-top" class="ja-mass">
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml(‘mass-top1’) ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<!-- //MASS TOP -->

would display the masshead block you put into the category:

<reference name="mass-top1">
<block type="joomlart_jmmasshead/core" name="jmmasshead" >
<action method="setData"><name>title</name><value>skateboards</value></action>
<action method="setData"><name>background</name><value>wysiwyg/banner-catalog.jpg</value></action>
</block>
</reference>

and it displays once only.

The mentioned snippet of code:

Thanks Sherlck, yes I failed to see that it was mentioned twice, just haven’t had a chance to update this post.

On a related topic, how I do I set the defualt product page layout from two columns to one?

On a related topic, how I do I set the defualt product page layout from two columns to one?

Go to the app\design\frontend\default\jm_hawkstore\layout\ca talog.xml, at around line 197 you would see

HTML Code:

<reference name="root">
            <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/2columns-left.phtml</template></action>
        </reference>

you change it to

HTML Code:

<reference name="root">
            <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/1columns.phtml</template></action>
        </reference>

I hope this helps !
