Hello guys.

I installed kranos template and im having trouble using some positions like “slideshow, twitter, contentslider” like in the demo builder.
i notice that previously i had to install ironis to be able to use the slideshow position for the slideshow module… so im figuring that i will need to find out what other template uses whar position in order to enable those for kranos.

i also check the defaul code for the template, and positions are there..

please some helop on this!

When you installed your JA Kranos template, did you do so utilizing the quickstart + sample data installation process?

Thanks but no, i installed the template, modules, plugins, components that comes with the zip file.. One by one..
I Did not used the quickstart feature. And have no chance to doit since there is user data on the site already.

Txs.

Well, the easiest way for you to have had your components and modules configured as in the demo version would have been for you to take advantage of the quickstart+sample data installation process – which provides for you a virtual clone of the demo version. Were you not aware of this?

At this point, since you do not believe you can start over, you are going to have to manually configure the various modules and components. However, THERE IS A TOOL YOU CAN UTILIZE to cross-check your own site’s configurations with that of the demo.

Thank you, I always create a demo version of all the templates I am going to use at the same time I install all templates, modules, plugins, and components…
Yes I knew about the quick start process, however I was given access to a already installed version of joomla 1.5 to start from there.. so no quick start option is available for me now, and since im working with already installed joomla 1.5 hostings, there wont be a chance for any project I work with, so I really need to find the way how to solve this.

I installed all 2010 and 2011 templates..
try removing and reinstalling all posible versions of modules to see if a recent or previous version works.. “contentslider” like for example. and did not work..

I am facing this with ‘twitter’ module, which seems not to be able to be installed on the ‘twitter’ position like it apears on the kranos demo version i created.

I am not able to use these positions.

twitter
contentslider
acordion
and so many more that comes with the default kranos template for joomla 1.5

what do you think could be the source of the issue? where can I see what positions are available for the modules to use them?

thank for you help. rgds

This is the part I am confused about . . . how are you “not able to use” those positions?

those positions seems not to be available to shoose from the modules settings, like the “JA Twitter Module For Joomla 1.5.x” module that should use the “twitter” position,
tha same thing happens when I try to set up the content slider module to use the “contentslide” position… and so on for several modules…

I also check the template to show the template positions, and curiously, the positions are there…

try this and youl see..

My site http://infoagro.hn/?tp=1
the demo site http://ja-kranos1325628089.joomweb.com/?tp=1

I hope you find somethig whithout the need to run the quick install, since unfortunately, is not an option I can pick..

however, figuring out how to tackle this issue, will give us something new and fresh for our brains! 🙂

please help :((

Ahhhhhh, okay . . . . I’ve seen this issue come up before.

TRY THIS –> within the module configuration for the module you want to assign to a position (e.g. JA Twitter), manually type in “twitter” into the position field. I’m not sure why this occurs, but often times this will “kick-start” enabling the module position within the list. You can do the same for the other positions you do not see in the position list within the respective module positions.

Let me know if that works.

Yah … It’s a weird “kick-start” method that first happened to ME (until I figured it out) – and now I am able to impart this solution to others. And now YOU know too – and can pass on the knowledge as well. 😎

All the best with your continuing site development.

I can not believe this is happening still in 2014 but, yes it works for me too in case of Ja Mitius. Thanks
