Hello,
I have a development site, and have installed the Gantry bundle, and have set the Gantry template as default.
When publishing a module to certain positions (e.g Bottom or MainBottom) the module does not appear on the front-end.
I figured I might have to create Custom Modules and have read the documentation on creating these.
Two "issues" (perhaps questions) I have are (in no particular order):
1) In your Creating New Modules Position documentation, step 3 says:
Next, open template-options.xml and scroll down to the line which says this:
< fieldset name= "layouts" label = "LAYOUTS" >
I have downloaded the template-options.xml file and do not see the above - there is no html in this file - have I downloaded the wrong thing ?
2) Putting aside creating a new module position, when creating a new module (note: I do not mean a new module position - but in the site back-end --> Modules --> new)
When choosing Position - the drop down box appears - the module position(s) I want to use (e.g Bottom a) appear in the list.
I do not understand why it would appear in that list, by default, if I need to add code elsewhere.
When using a different Gantry enabled Template - such as Fresco - I am able to use such a position as "Bottom a" without adding any code elsewhere - is the Gantry default template missing all the code required, or am I missing something ?
I have tried different permutations of Force position, and position count.
Any advice appreciated.
Regards,
Pipkin.

Hello,
Just an update . . .
When I publish a module to, for example content-bottom-a, the module contents do not display yet the page "re-aligns" to allow for the modules. The module position simply appears blank - no module content.
Am using Joomla v2.5.11, and Gantry v4.1.10.
Any ideas on getting the module content to appear ?
Have tried the latest versions of: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Safari, and Firefox - same front-end issue.
Regards,
Pipkin.
