Hi!

Its my first posting here and I hope i do not bother you with my question, but I really could not find a good answer to my question in existing threads.

I use Barite, this really great template, and just want to add a new module position in Joomla 1.5.4. I have to say, I use Joomla in this version only since a few days and really must get used to it. To spend not too much time in trial-error hacking i just want to ask the professionals here:

How really to add a new module position in Joomla 1.5 and Barite template? Maybe a step-by-step version for the dummies here like I am 😉

I want to create this module in the same region (or better instead – if possible) in the Body-region (below the slider).

Maybe there is also a thread where this is written but I really did not find.

Thanks so much!!!

Hi you should make some screenshots about your request
and , at first you must edit templateDetails.xml (templates/ja_barite folder)
you will see those lines like this :

<positions>
<position>hornav</position>
<position>breadcrumbs</position>
<position>banner</position>
<position>left</position>
<position>right1</position>
<position>right2</position>
<position>mass_top</position>
<position>mass_bot</position>
<position>slider</position>
<position>top</position>
<position>user1</position>
<position>user2</position>
<position>user3</position>
<position>user4</position>
<position>user5</position>
<position>user6</position>
<position>user7</position>
<position>footer</position>
<position>syndicate</position>

You can edit index.php(templates/ja_barite/ folder)
Search this line

<?php mosMainBody(); ?>
Change to

<?php mosMainBody(); ?>
<?php mosLoadModules("yourposition") ;?>
