RE: I was wondering if there would be a way to have my directory page with a sidebar but when going to the entry’s details, have a full page template load.
Yes, this is possible but requires a slightly more complex configuration.
- Edit the page the directory is currently on. Look in the browser’s address bar and note the ID that WordPress has assigned the page.
- Create a new page. The name is not important but should be relevant. Let’s call the page “Business”. In the “Business” page content, add the Connections shortcode with the
home_id
shortcode option set to the page ID of the original directory page. - After you save the new page, take note of its page ID.
- Edit the original page again and add the
home_id
shortcode option setting it to the new page ID. - Ensure the new page does not display in your sites navigation.
- Now, when an entry is clicked on your directory page, the links will resolve to the new second page displaying only that entry with no other content.
Hope that helps!
RE: I would also like to know if there’s a way to have the image load to the top right of the details page
The image is designed to float down when there is not enough room. I know it appears that this is… but the left column’s content is wider than the space left to fit the image.
I suspect if you use a full page view in your theme on the second directory page using the method described in my previous answer you’ll get the desired layout.
Hope this helps, let me know.
