Hi all,

I tried looking around but didn't seem to get any farther so i'm hoping I can get some answers to my question quicker this way. Any help would be appreciated.

This is from a already custom theme created that I am just trying to modify but in page.tpl.php there are variables like $page['main_nav'] and $page['more_footer']. Are these pages or blocks created in drupal? Like where do I access, example "Main_nav", so I can change the layout?

Thanks in advance.

They're probably regions, you can check in your themes info file if there are regions with the same machine name. If they are regions you can create region templates (lots of info about template suggestions in D7, just search/google it).

If they're not regions, then the theme or a module are creating those variables so you'd need to backtrace to find where those things are coming from.

I looked in the .info file and they are regions. But in the "templates" folder I do not see any region templates associated with them. I'll dig around some more to see where they may be. Thanks

Study the the D7 template system: https://www.drupal.org/docs/7/theming/core-templates

Templates can come from many places, most likely a base theme or Drupal core it self. There is likely only one - region.tpl.php, you can create region specific templates if you need to override one or more regions, i.e. region--[region].tpl.php
