it also depends what you have added in your index.php ...
I never killed a site by adding a position.
But just to be sure do a backup and work on a local copy of your website.

to recap here's what I've done.
In index.php of the template folder, I've added this after the "showcase":
<?php /** tim adding a module row after this **/ ?>
<div id="rt-exampleposition">
<?php echo $gantry->displayModules('example','standard','standard'); ?>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
<?php /** tim end **/ ?>
In the templateDetails.xml of the template folder, I've added this:
<position>example-a</position>
<position>example-b</position>
<position>example-c</position>
<position>example-d</position>
<position>example-e</position>
<position>example-f</position>
In the template-options.xml of the template folder, I've added this:
<fields name="example" type="position" label="TimsCustom_POS">
<field name="layout" type="positions" default="3,3,3,3" label="">
<schemas>1,2,3,4,5,6</schemas>
<words>2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10</words>
</field>
<field name="showall" type="toggle" default="0" label="FORCE_POS"/>
<field name="showmax" type="showmax" default="6" label="POS_COUNT"/>
</fields>
Should this work, or am I missing anything? I haven't uploaded the files yet, because I'm scared
I want to make sure I'm doing this correctly since the tutorial is outdated. Please confirm the above, if you don't mind please.
Thanks!
Tim

thanks. Like I said, I'm a bit concerned so I wanted a good comment to see where to "remove" my revisions if I break something. I'll give this a try.

Ok, so I added the position. But how do I make it look like "showcase" row...regarding the info in the "Style" tab of my template manager?
See the new position...which is a white bar on this page...which says "View all updates"
logochairs.com/j25cms/index.php/product-...canvas-chair-item-12
Also, I have the following settings in the "Layouts" tab:
Positions: 2
10|2
Force positions: On
Position Count: 2
The module you are seeing displayed above is in position: example-a
Do you know why this isn't working as forced position 10|2 since this is in example-b position?
