Metamod slideshow problems

Im using a template (inspire virtuemart) that has a slideshow on the index. the problem is, that the slideshow is also shown in the cart.
the slideshow obviously uses all modules in a certain position to be shown.

i tried following to solve it:

Code:

$vm = JomGenius("virtuemart"); // need this at the start of every rule

if ( $vm->check( "pagetype = frontpage" ) ) return 98,99,100;

as a result i (still) dont see the sliders and got an empty slider for the metamod module. is there a way to fix this. or maybe, will metamodpro will be able to disable the slideshow on the cart page?

PHP-Version 5.5.30
Joomla! 3.4.1
VirtueMart 3.0.9
Latest MetaMod

EDIT: Fixed this problem another way.

Re: Metamod slideshow problems

In answer to your question (even if you solved it), the main issue with the code above is:

- when you return a list of items from a MetaMod code block, you need to put quotes around it or else it creates a PHP error which may or may not get reported.

So the correct code would be:

$vm = JomGenius("virtuemart"); // need this at the start of every rule
if ( $vm->check( "pagetype = frontpage" ) ) return "98,99,100";

Also, MetaMod Pro would solve the problem of an empty module position showing on pages where MetaMod is not displaying a module.

In any case I'm glad you solved your problem - that's the main thing.

Cheers,
Stephen
