Hello joomla team, i decided to move to the knew athena teamplate, because the design is very modern and super nice to teh eye🙂 But i have one problem what possition i must choose in menu.lt moduel to show the menu in front page, module id is 94 and i want to return language switcher module id 98, but in new athena theme i tryed all the menu possitions but nothing happens ;/ and i dont know what iam doing wrong, i want all the possitions that was in alumni template transfer to knew athena template;/ i think that thsi is possible, but i need so your littke help. I think when you retunr the main menu and language swither i vil figure evrithing by myself then 🙂

Each template will use its supported layouts and positions, you can't simply copy positions from anther template and it will work the same. You need to configure and style 🙂

In JA Athena template, I think you can assign the language switcher module to topbar-r position where the social icons are showing on our demo site here: https://ja-athena.demo.joomlart.com/

For more info, pls check out the documentation of template: https://www.joomlart.com/documentation/joomla-templates/ja-athena#pages-config

Thanks a, lot 🙂 I have know search bar and languge bar 🙂 From what folder do i need to copy possitions from ja alumni template to the athena template 🙂?

Positions are defined in XML file of template:

ROOT/templates/ja_your_template/templateDetails.xml

but again, it depends on the layout of template, JA Athena and Alumni have different layouts. you must configure the layout to have positions as you wish.
