I want to enable a (Position Right) all through the template to accommodate adverts but I don’t understand how it could be achieved after reading the template documentation. I am scared to attempt changes that will disrupt the entire structure of the template. Could you please help me to realize this. See the attached image

Hi @winbelltrade,

Please navigate to backend >>> Menus >>> Main Menu >>> Home >>> currently the menu item is assigned with template style ja_directory – Feature. This style doesn’t have left / right sidebar so try to change the Template Style to Use Default and recheck.

I have applied your recommendation but instead of showing the right position the whole directory portion (section 1) does not show again but only section 2. Could you check ityourself.

Hi @winbelltrade,

I created new template style ja_directory – Home and assign to page home. Currently the position section-1 stay above the body section (left column / component / right column) so you will have to create new position and place it on top of component part.

Open file templates/ja_directory/tpls/blocks/mainbody/one-sidebar-left.php and look for this code :

<?php if($this->hasMessage()) : ?>

then update as below :

<?php if ($this->countModules('section-3')) : ?>
  <!-- SECTION 3 -->
  <section class="wrap t3-section t3-section-3 <?php $this->_c('section-3') ?>">
      <jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p('section-3') ?>" style="raw"/>
  </section>
  <!-- //SECTION 3 -->
<?php endif ?>
<?php if($this->hasMessage()) : ?>

replicate to file one-sidebar-right.php and two-sidebar.php as well. Last step is to move some module from position section-1 to section-3 to suite your need.

I followed your recommended action step by step and it could not create the position on the right as I wanted for the adverts. Also the position "section-3" does not exist on the template to move some modules to. I need further assistance please.

Hi @winbelltrade,

The position section-3 is not ready to be used. In case you want to refer later, I changed 3 files as mentioned above :

• templates/ja_directory/tpls/blocks/mainbody/one-sidebar-left.php
• templates/ja_directory/tpls/blocks/mainbody/one-sidebar-right.php
• templates/ja_directory/tpls/blocks/mainbody/two-sidebar.php

Next, in addition to select position section-3, open file templates/ja_directory/templateDetails.xml and add this line :

<position>section-2</position>

duplicate it and name section-3 instead.
