different layout for homepage and category page

[ericgtp313]

Hi all, I'm new to oscmax, and I'm trying to skin the site based on designs handed to me.
The homepage has one design, the category page has a completely different design, and the products (and all other pages) have a different design than both of those.

So, using BTS, how would I make the design different for the categories page?

If I'm understanding correctly, i just put the filename.tpl.php into templates/templatename/content/, but since the category page and homepage are both index.php, how could I make one use a different template than the other?

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

This is a case where you want to create multiple main_page.tpl.php files and call the different file based on the page being called

[changes made in the catalog file for the page, for instance /catalog/product_info.php ]

The line you want to look for in these files is:
include (bts_select('main', $content_template)); // BTSv1.5

Doh. I looked at that for a while and figured that was the key, but never investigated further.

Thanks for the help.
