Hi, I am trying to add a new module position above the main content area of the website. I was able to put a module below the main content area but haven’t been able to figure out how to get one to show above the content area.

Hi,
– You login backend–>goto Extensions–>template manager–>JA_Lime – Default–>Layout tab–>Edit default layout. You add this code

<block name="content-mass-top">content-mass-top</block>
after

<blocks name="middle" colwidth="23">
– Set position of module is content-mass-top

I can’t seem to figure this out, after I go to layout tab I do not see anywhere to edit default layout. Last time I had to add a new position I did it in my main.php file.

I am using ja-lime 1.5 and the back-end is different then that. The back-end in your screenshot is of the new style templates. I have to edit the file through ftp I think or through edit css or html file in the back-end.

Default ja-lime 1.5 has content-mass-top position. You just create new module and set its position is content-mass-top (you can type it when choose position)

ok, that helps out some. The only thing is, I would like to be able to put something above the main content, but still in the main content area. The content-mass-top position goes about my first two columns, but I really want something at the top of my 1st, main width column. Thanks for all the help.

– You replace this code from <joomla url>templatesja_limelayoutsdefault.php file

'content-top' =>'',
with

'content-top' =>'content-top',
– Set module’s position is content-top
