Hi npweb

To add 3 new positions below the slideshow you can do in this way

go to extensions–>template manager –>Ja_Edenite-Default on the Layout Tab Default click on Edit so your actual default layout is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="header" type="header"></block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user1,user2,user3,user4,user5</block>
<block name="topsl1" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="20" main-inner="1">
<block name="left1">left</block>
<block name="content-mass-top">content-mass-top</block>
<block name="content-top" type="modules">content-top</block>
<block name="content-mass-bottom">content-mass-bottom</block>
<block name="right1">right</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper"></block>
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user11,user12,user13,user14,user15</block>

<block name="botsl1" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user16,user17,user18,user19,user20</block>
<block name="footer" type="footer" wrap-inner="1"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

change it adding the red line code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="header" type="header"></block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user1,user2,user3,user4,user5</block>
<block name="topsl1" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="20" main-inner="1">
<block name="left1">left</block>
<block name="content-top" type="spotlight">yourmod1,yourmod2,yourmod3</block>
<block name="content-mass-top">content-mass-top</block>
<block name="content-top" type="modules">content-top</block>
<block name="content-mass-bottom">content-mass-bottom</block>
<block name="right1">right</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper"></block>
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user11,user12,user13,user14,user15</block>

<block name="botsl1" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user16,user17,user18,user19,user20</block>
<block name="footer" type="footer" wrap-inner="1"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

Then go to /templates/Ja_edenite/TemplateDetails.xml your code now is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<position>content-mass-top</position>
<position>pippo</position>
<position>pluto</position>
<position>header</position>
</positions>

<params>

</params>
</extension>

append this three line of code


<position>yourmod1</position>
<position>yourmod2</position>
<position>yourmod3</position>
</positions>

so the new file will be

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
