How do I add a template for account pages only?

I have a template that needs to be only on account pages and checkout pages.



I have got a menu in the local.xml that is shown when a customer is logged in but I want to show it only on certain pages aswell.

          You can target specific pages by using their respective handles.



          Add the following to your local.xml



          <checkout_cart_index>
          <reference name="header">
          <block type="menu/block" name="custom_menu" template="custommenu/template.phtml"/>
          </reference>
          </checkout_cart_index>

          <checkout_onepage_index>
          <reference name="header">
          <block type="menu/block" name="custom_menu" template="custommenu/template.phtml"/>
          </reference>
          </checkout_onepage_index>

          <customer_account>
          <reference name="header">
          <block type="menu/block" name="custom_menu" template="custommenu/template.phtml"/>
          </reference>
          </customer_account>

          <customer_logged_out>
          <remove name="custom_menu"/>
          </customer_logged_out>


          Guessing the menu would be added in the header of your webshop this will add it to the cart, checkout and customer account section ONLY for logged in users.



          I've used the customer_logged_out handle to remove the menu when a user is not logged in. Somewhat along the lines of what you've discribed in your question.



          Now you can call the menu by adding the following code in your header.phtml where you want to display the menu.



          <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('custom_menu');?>
