Kraken: Recreating the Demo - Mainbar and Aside Sections

Your Guide to Recreating Elements of the Kraken Demo for Joomla


Introduction

The Mainbar section includes three module positions, mainbar-a, mainbar-b, and mainbar-c. In a second row, the Pagecontent position has been added, inserting any article content that is assigned to the page. We are only using mainbar-a from this section actively, so only it is rendering to the front end.
