Thanks for the quick help. I was trying to modify the base.php instead of guest.php.
I will work on customizing guest.php and let you know if i face any further issues.
I have tried adding my own design into the guest.php file. It is working fine but whatever i add is appending inside this div with id "t3-content".
How can i avoid it.Please look at the below link:
thinkbucketlist.com/index.php/en/
Whatever i add is restricted to that container div.
Because it's general template container. You can't avoid it. Any component content is displayed in that container.
To change that you'll need to rebuild/customize your template.
