Hello

I am trying to add the ‘spa-home’ module position to pages using the Uber – Default template.

I can’t see a way to add the position, so I have tried to amend an existing one (full-width)

When I click on configure for the ‘full-width’ position and choose ‘spa-home’, ‘spa-home’ then appears in the layout.

However, when I click save it reverts to the ‘full-width’ position again?

Can someone give me a simple step by step guide to help me do this please?

Many thanks

Hello Adam,

Thanks for the reply. I have already tried that.

I have tried to change the ‘full-width’ module position to the ‘spa-home’ module position.

It changes on the screen but when I click save it reverts to ‘full-width’

I cannot get it to save my changes

Hi @waynefarnworth,

Basically, to add new module position (not sure what you mean you change instead) you will have to do 2 steps :

1. Add new position to root_foldertemplatesubertemplateDetails.xml

2. Call new position via appropriate files in root_foldertemplatesubertplsblocks

Hello Adam,

Sorry I didn’t explain it very well.

Following the first video in the link you gave me – Layout Configuration

At around 2 minutes in.

Extension Manager > Template Manager > Choose Template > Layout > Module Position

Click configuration in top right of module position > Choose new position from list > Save

This is what I have done but when I click save it reverts to how it was before?

In the Uber – Default Template, I want to replace the full-width module position with spa-home module position.

Regards

Wayne

Hi @waynefarnworth,

Sorry for the delay. Look like there’s a problem with folder permission, please open file templatesuberlocaletclayoutdefault.ini or templatesuberetclayoutdefault.ini if you don’t see the file in local folder, then look for this line :

[full-width]
xs="hidden"
position="full-width"

update as below :

[full-width]
xs="hidden"
position="spa-home"

Hello Adam,

I have done that. It has appeared but without the correct styling?

Hi @waynefarnworth,

Could you please provide a screenshot and let me know your expected result so I can assist you better ?

Adam,

You can see how the module is styled on the home page.

I have attached screenshots of how it looks on the home page and how it looks onthe other pages after being added to the Uber – Default template as per your instructions above.
