Please help me to understand "Module Positions"

  • Please help me to understand "Module Positions"

    Posted 17 years 10 months ago
    • Hi,

      I am stuck with the concept of Module Position.

      On my page I have:

      www.artboyinc.com/myjoomla

      User 1 - 7
      Inset
      Newsflash
      Footer.

      I know that I can add a module to these positions.

      How do I control the size and position of each individual module.

      I have posted this before so if your moderating, please forgive me but I am hemmed up with this problem.

      Thanks

    • Hi,

      Don't take this the wrong way but if I could find a solution in the Joomla Help Docs I probaly wouldn't post a question in the forum.

      If the idea behind joomla is to just folllow along with the template thats alright.

      But it has been my experience that clients never take a path that is straight and narrow.

      I like Joomla, its definitly very cool.

      And since I am not a PHP or CSS master by any means I just need some clarification or direction in regard to module positions

      this would be a good place to start about managing modules
      help.joomla.org/content/view/91/276/

      also try to user manual, it explains pretty much all of the basic elements of a joomla template (like modules)

    • Yes, great, I have read all that.

      Do you know how to do this...or is it too much trouble to explain.

    • It is not simple to explain as it basically requires to teach you how to create templates which is no easy, if I understand you correctly :)

    • Look, I think I am asking a simple question.

      Can you or can you not modify the module position?

      If you know how then why not tell me or direct me to a tutorial.

      If you don't know how then why tell me to read the help files.

      If it was clearly stated in the help files I would waste anyones time by posting.

    • You can with CSS and PHP. But your question is very vague and it could be something simple as changing colours to constructing a set of modules with numerous php functions.

      There are a few tutorials from tutorials.rockettheme.com but Google will be your best bet.

      To get the best answer, you must ask a more detailed question. Module position, is this just the name or moving the position to another slot etc...
