    How do I override Gantry Framework?? Joomla

    Posted 10 years 11 months ago
    • Im currently running Rocktheme template (Garnty framework) with Easy Social, Easy Blog, and Easy Discuss... The Garnty framework is not allowing me to access the ES, EB, and ED module positions.. In particular.. Is there any way to override the Granty framework??

    • ES, EB and ED module positions are really not related to the Gantry in any way. Can you explain in which way Gantry prevents those module positions?

    • Hi there,

      As I don't use any of those extensions I am not familiar with their module positions. However, Joomla has always been a CMS which is templated and by default you can only use positions included in the template that is going to display the website.

      The only method to avoid that is loading modules inside articles using the {loadposition name-here} option.

      There are also 3rd party extensions to display modules with far greater control and flexibility, such as modulesanywhere by nonumber.nl

      Hope this helps 8)

    • Please search forums before posting. Please make sure your post includes the version of the CMS you are using and a link to the problem. Annotations on screenshots can also be helpful to explain problems/goals. Please use the "secure" tab for confidential information

    • Yes, I understood that from your first post but I still don't understand what exactly is the issue with assigning modules to the Easy extension templates? I need that info to understand what exactly is going on

    • I think that you expect that module positions defined in the Easy templates will show up in the module positions list when you want to assign a module to them. That is actually not the case and this can't be because those templates are not website templates. Those templates are component templates. If you want to use module positions defined in those template, just write module positions freely in the module position text field and don't use button to choose existing module positions

    • OK. I got your super admin login details but you will have to tell me which module and in which module position are you trying to publish
