It does NOT seem possible to have banner ads (ads is possible at the left/right column) in this template at the middle column like the default template of joomla which shows an ad in the banner position.

This template is the best I have liked so far and I have already used it very heavily; implies I cannot switch (the other newer templates also don’t seem to have this position enabled). Can there be a quick fix to include such a position (please)? The banner position does already exists in joomla CMS, I think all you need is some coding somewhere in the index.php (I could have done that myself but I am a newbie to php:p ).

E.g: I am using 3-column version of ja_spica. Take a look: http://www.msiguide.com I want to have a horizontal banner ad exactly at the position of THE HEADLINES (the top position on main content) with the standard size of 468*60 or similar.

Thanks in advance.

Around line #132 in the index.php file of the template, find this


<?php mosMainBody(); ?>


Add the folllowing code above


<?php if ( mosCountModules('banner') ) { ?>
<div class="banner">
<?php mosLoadModules ( 'banner',-2 ); ?>
</div>
<?php } ?>


You can add more css properties to css file so that you can define the stylesheet for your banner. Eg:


div.banner {
border: 0px,
}
