Hi,
I’ve tried creating a new layout in Uber and tried adding my own module positions, but I can’t seem to get it to work.
I’ve created a layout file: here: /local/tpls/vp-layout-main.php
The code is below, i’ve basically taken the default view and added in a few new positions, with a prefix of “vp”
<?php

*/defined('_JEXEC') or die;
?><!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="<?php echo $this->language; ?>" dir="<?php echo $this->direction; ?>"
class='<jdoc:include type="pageclass" />'><head>
<jdoc:include type="head" />
<?php $this->loadBlock('head') ?>
<?php $this->addCss('layouts/docs') ?>
</head><body>
<div class="t3-wrapper"> <!-- Need this wrapper for off-canvas menu. Remove if you don't use of-canvas -->
<?php $this->loadBlock('header') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('masthead') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('submenu') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('vp-pre-content') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('vp-cta-1') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('mainbody') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('vp-post-content') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('vp-story') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('vp-cta-2') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('spotlight-1') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('vp-cta-3') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('full-width') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('vp-cta-final') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('footer') ?>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Then I Created a layout.ini file
position="acm-header"[masthead]
position="masthead"position="submenu"
[vp-pre-content]
position="vp-pre-content"[vp-cta1]
position="vp-cta1"[mastcol]
position="mastcol"position="sidebar-1"
position="sidebar-2"
[vp-story]
position="vp-story"[vp-post-content]
position="vp-post-content"[vp-cta-2]
position="vp-cta-2"[vp-cta-3]
position="vp-cta-3"[full-width]
position="full-width"[vp-cta-final]
position="vp-cta-final"position="acm-footer"
[block1@spotlight-1]
lg="col-lg-3"
md="col-md-3"
sm="col-sm-3"
xs="col-xs-6"
position="position-1"[block2@spotlight-1]
lg="col-lg-3"
md="col-md-3"
sm="col-sm-3"
xs="col-xs-6"
position="position-2"[block3@spotlight-1]
lg="col-lg-3"
md="col-md-3"
sm="col-sm-3"
xs="col-xs-6"
position="position-3"[block4@spotlight-1]
lg="col-lg-3"
md="col-md-3"
sm="col-sm-3"
xs="col-xs-6"
position="position-4"Then I created the individual blocks matching the names up with those i created in the files above, but when I look in the admin section, they don’t appear like I would expect them to, the position names are missing and a grey line is shown instead. I can see the module position names are there to assign modules to in the module manager, but when I assign modules to those module positions, they wont show in the front end.
Any ideas?
Thanks
