    [CMS] CMS - Different Grid on section and article pages?

    I have a home page with article abstracts showing, and there is also a side column with a widgets.

    When visitors click on an article title or the Read More link, and see the full article, the article is shown with the home page section grid, i.e. the same side column and widget.

    Is there a way to show different grids; one on the section page with the side column and widget, one on the article page without side column and widget?

    Thanks!

    Yes. You have to have two sections created, each with different layouts assigned to them. The second section has to be a sub section of the first. Set the first to show content from the subsection in the section layout. When adding articles, add them to the subsection. This will show the article preview in the main section with one layout and when you click the article, it will show the article in the sub section with a different layout.

            This solution helps ... but it makes the Section Widget work incorrectly ... with useless subsections ... does someone knows how to fix this better?
