  • How can I apply a module class variation ?

    Posted 16 years 4 months ago
    • Hello there,
      I have a template based on Firenzi.
      I can easily create custom modules then set the Module Class Suffix in the Module parameters section accordin to the desired values that correspond to variations in the template I'm using.

      Now I coded a new module, which I called mod_devnews and I tried to apply the desired module style by inserting the div tag in the rendering phase :

      file :mod_devnews/tmpl/default.php
      <?php defined( '_JEXEC' ) or die( 'Restricted access' ); ?>
<div id="module-hilite3">
<?php
foreach ($list as $news) {
    ?>
    <p>
        <?php require(JModuleHelper::getLayoutPath('mod_devnews', 'news')); ?>
    </p>
    <?php
}
?>
<br /> <a class="readon" href="index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=18&Itemid=35">All news items...</a>
</div>

      Now, this is the resulting image on the front page where the module is displayed :
      This image is hidden for guests.

      When I visulize the html code of the resulting page I note that the <div> tag comes after the module title, which is normal according to what I did, but it is really strange that the borders didn't even appear within the module content.

      Anyway I'd like to have a similar behavior to the module to the left (titled Easy Profiler is available) and hence need to know how I can tell Joomla framework to insert that famous div before the title of my "Development News" module.

      Thank you in advance.
      Ahmed.

    • adding the following code in the beginning of the module code

      $params->set('moduleclass_sfx','module-hilite1');

      does help in vain.

      Any ideas ? :cry:

    • Pbm solved by adding a new option in the xml file :

      ..
      <params>
      <param name="moduleclass_sfx" type="text" default=""
      label="Module Class Suffix"
      description="A suffix to be applied to the css class of the module
      (table.moduletable), this allows individual module styling" />

      </params>
      ...
      :cheesy:
