I'm trying to set different front page for anonymous and authenticated users using the front page module http://drupal.org/project/front. I'd like the frontpage to have the header but not the right sidebar. In page.tpl.php the right sidebar is defined as $sidebar_right. So I thought that I could add code to check if the url is domain.com/front_page and then not print $sidebar_right. Or some other solution that doesn't print the right sidebar on the front_page.
I'm a php novice but I'm learning.. I appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks! /Mattias
Just check the $is_front variable, which is set on any page.tpl.php (or derivative) template. That's much more stable than checking the URL directly.
Alternatively, use page-front.tpl.php, which automatically gets used for the front page in place of the normal page.tpl.php. Then simply omit the $sidebar_right statement entirely.

Thanks! I used page-front.tpl.php and it works great.
Although I'd like to have the blocks be side by side on the front page but the blocks get put ontop of eachother. How do I make them side by side on the front-page?
Cheers! /Mattias

Each block is just a div. Use CSS to float them left/right, or some other "sideways" method of your choice.
In theory I suppose you could make each a table cell in block.tpl.php and then wrap them in a row/table in the page template, but that would get extremely ugly extremely fast and I don't recommend it. :-)

Ok, thanks. But what php code do I use to print a specified block?

There are php snippets for this kind of thing in the handbook.
If this is too technical, then you might look at the panels module, which provides a gui for picking and choosing what blocks you display.
