Re: Wrapping the "center section" of a tiki page

The .tpl file (along with the php file that supplies its logic) is what lays out the center column content. It seems to me your best course is to turn off the topbar, side columns, and/or bottom bar for any Tiki features (sections) where you don't want them on, and add your own page headers and so on by modifying the relevant Tiki template file. I've done this making my own themes/page layouts, and there hasn't been any problem, although my modifications are fairly straightforward. (See zukakakina.com.)
The feature's tpl file also calls tiki.tpl and the associated setup and header files. I suppose that if you try to load the center column without these files, the preliminaries — user perms and prefs, session, etc. — won't be taken care of and there will be fatal errors.
If you have problems, it'd be good to report what specifically you are trying to do.
