Is there a way to specify OR conditions ? ie : node 43 OR node 56 ?

  No, but you can place 2 groups in override.ini(.append.php) like in the following example:
  
  [magic_pockets_43]
  Source=node/view/full.tpl
  MatchFile=magic_pocket.tpl
  Subdir=templates
  Match[node]=43
  
  [magic_pockets_56]
  Source=node/view/full.tpl
  MatchFile=magic_pocket.tpl
  Subdir=templates
  Match[node]=56
  
  (Note that the group name must be diffent.)
  
  If you have set of many such nodes, you may consider creating a special class for those nodes or place them in special section (do not forget on permission settings in this case).
Override a pagelayout_bodycontent

Suppose pagelayout.tpl as follows:

"--------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="{$site.http_equiv.Content-language|wash}" lang="{$site.http_equiv.Content-language|wash}">

<head>

{include uri="design:pagelayout_style.tpl"}
{include uri="design:pagelayout_javascript.tpl"}

{literal}

{/literal}

{include uri="design:page_head.tpl"}

</head>
<body>

<div id="allcontent">

<div id="topcontent">
{include uri="design:pagelayout_topcontent.tpl"}
</div>{* id="topcontent" *}

<hr class="hide" />

{include uri="design:pagelayout_topmenu.tpl"}

<hr class="hide" />

{include uri="design:pagelayout_path.tpl"}

{include uri="design:pagelayout_bodycontent.tpl"}

<hr class="hide" />

{include uri="design:pagelayout_toolbarbottom.tpl"}

{include uri="design:pagelayout_footer.tpl"}

<div class="break"></div>
</div>{* id="allcontent" *}



</body>
</html>

-------"

I "override" pagelayout_bodycontent.tpl as follows:

1. Put a new template in "frontpage/pagelayout_bodycontent.tpl".
2. Write into override.ini.append.php
[pagelayout_bodycontent_frontpage]
Source=pagelayout_bodycontent.tpl
MatchFile=frontpage/pagelayout_bodycontent.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[node]=2

But the result is not OK. The override pagelayout_bodycontent.tpl not run.
match condition on url_alias

Hi,

Just to mention that match on url_alias is recursive.

Match[url_alias]=my_folder
will override not only my_folder content, but also all its children
(tried with pagelayout override).
It's a good idea, to avoid use of section, but it's not really told in the doc.
