Hi can someone tell me how I can move ja-news to be above the main body content? Everytime I post an article on the front page the janews module is below the content body.
Here is my code:

<blockquote><!– BEGIN: CONTENT –>
<div id=”ja-content”>
<div class=”ja-innerpad clearfix”>

<jdoc:include type=”message” />

<?php if(!$tmpTools->isFrontPage()) : ?>
<div id=”ja-breadcrumb”>
<jdoc:include type=”module” name=”breadcrumbs” />
</div>
<?php endif ; ?>

<div id=”ja-current-content”>

<?php
$params = &$mainframe->getParams();
// parameters
$intro = $params->def(‘num_intro_articles’, 4);
$leading = $params->def(‘num_leading_articles’, 1);
if (!$tmpTools->isFrontPage() || $intro || $leading) {
?>
<jdoc:include type=”component” />

<?php
}
if ( $tmpTools->isFrontPage() && $this->countModules(“ja-news”) ) { ?>
<div id=”ja-newswrap”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”ja-news” style=”raw” />
</div>
<?php } ?>

</div>

<?php if($this->countModules(‘banner’)) : ?>
<!– BEGIN: BANNER –>
<div id=”ja-banner”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”banner” />
</div>
<!– END: BANNER –>
<?php endif; ?>

</div>
</div>

<!– END: CONTENT –></blockquote>

I tried moving the janews above body content but keep getting errors. Pls help!!

i guess you didnt set up the main menu as it should be, since ja-news is there to replace the mainbody at frontpage.
Go to Menus-Main Menu-Home, on the right side there you get some parameters you can set to 0, such as # Leading
# Intro
Columns
# Links

but you can try with this:

<!-- BEGIN: CONTENT -->
<div id="ja-content">
<div class="ja-innerpad clearfix">

<jdoc:include type="message" />

<?php if(!$tmpTools->isFrontPage()) : ?>
<div id="ja-breadcrumb">
<jdoc:include type="module" name="breadcrumbs" />
</div>
<?php endif ; ?>

<div id="ja-current-content">

<?php
}
if ( $tmpTools->isFrontPage() && $this->countModules("ja-news") ) { ?>
<div id="ja-newswrap">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="ja-news" style="raw" />
</div>
<?php } ?>

<?php
$params = &$mainframe->getParams();
// parameters
$intro = $params->def('num_intro_articles', 4);
$leading = $params->def('num_leading_articles', 1);
if (!$tmpTools->isFrontPage() || $intro || $leading) {
?>
<jdoc:include type="component" />

</div>

<?php if($this->countModules('banner')) : ?>
<!-- BEGIN: BANNER -->
<div id="ja-banner">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="banner" />
</div>
<!-- END: BANNER -->
<?php endif; ?>

</div>
</div>

<!-- END: CONTENT -->

I tried the first suggestion but setting all the fields to 0 just removed the article that I wanted on the frontpage. The second suggestion I had previously tried and gave me a parsing error .. Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘}’ on line 160

this is referring to the 2nd line of your code below:

<?php
}
if ( $tmpTools->isFrontPage() && $this->countModules(“ja-news”) ) { ?>
<div id=”ja-newswrap”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”ja-news” style=”raw” />
</div>
<?php } ?>

I was able to place content in a custom module to trick it to be on the frontpage, but I was hoping to be able to post through articles instead of a module. haha Anyway, hanks again for all your help on this.

Help!! i tried changing the code so many times i lost count. I’m trying to post regular articles on the front page but it’s showing up before the ja-news module. I need it to show after ja-news module. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Anyone??

sorry about the late reply.. i couldn’t get it to work correctly, but what i did do was add another module position right above ja-news position and use that module instead.

In ADMIN menu SITE—>TEMPLATE MANAGER–>MODULE POSITIONS you will see a list of module positions. Check you have one named ja-news. If you dont already have it just create it by naming an empty one and clicking save.

Adding to the points above about main menu.
Go to your menu manager – main menu – HOME.

My parameters are as follow;

Menu image; Do not use

page title; Hide

Back button; hide

Leading; 0

Intro; 0

Columns; 1

Links; 0

PDF icons etc are hidden
