Hi Tom C

I’m not sure if you know this, but your advice and tutorials help joomla rookies like me in a major way and I just wanted to let you know how much I sincerely appreciate your responses, your advice and your time.

This creating a new module tutorial was EXACTLY what I was looking for! When I first thanked you on this thread I had only done a preliminary review of your tutorials and I wasn’t ready to tackle the new module position…however after all of the support and advice I have received on this forum plus your awesome and super clear steps, I am ready to take on this new adventure. I will let you know how it works out! I wish that I could officially thank you again!

Best

Thanks,
Wendye

THANK YOU for the positive feedback, Wendye . . . .

I always try to assist as best I can within my own knowledgebase – and sometimes creative/methodical solution solving.
Admittedly, I’m not always able to see a given issue through to completion/resolution. If it turns out I hit a roadblock myself, I will always try to elicit the assistance from one of my fellow Support Team colleagues who may be better able to assist and, hopefully, resolve the issue(s) – or, at the very least, research and provide reference to additional resources that may provide further guidance.

I don’t think that ANYONE has ALL of the answers … We’re ALL still learning and growing every day.

This is exactly why I compose and publish tutorials such as these … to try to assist and provide some guidance (for what it’s worth) for some of the more common questions/issues that we see come up from Members – for both working with the JATC Templates, as well as with the Joomla CMS in general.

Always appreciate the positive and constructive feedback . . . THANK YOU !!!

So long as people are finding them useful, I’ll keep posting them.

🙂

Hey Tom.

Thanks for the tutorial, but I’m a bit confused as to whether I should be creating a new block, or a new module position :-[

That is, I’d like to be able to place a module above the main content, to use as a slideshow, feed, etc above the articles. At the moment there is a block called ‘content-main’ containing a single module position ‘content’.

Should I create a new block above ‘content-main’, or a new module position in ‘content-main’ above ‘content’?

And exactly where is the default ‘Banner’ and how do I enable it / move it? Could it suit my purpose?

Am also confused since this tutorial (and others) mention files and code segments that don’t appear on my site, created from Joomla_2.5.6-Stable-Full_Package.zip and ja_purity_ii_joomla_2.5.zip. Note I did not use the ‘QuickStart’ … is this my problem?

Cheers,
Mal.

People having trouble with the new templates should use a different code (at least this worked for me in JA_ZITE)

instead of:

<div class=”ja-header-r”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”header-r” />
</div>
use this:
<?php if($this->countModules(‘header-r’)) : ?>
<div id=”ja-header-r”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”header-r” />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Hope this helps you guys out. It did for me.
