    What’s the best way to place the Search-Box on the right side of the Main-Menu?

    (*see image)

    Hi @sobe,

    To put a search module there, you will have to open file root_foldertemplatesja_teline_vtplsblocksmainnav.php, add new module position there (see instruction here) with appropriate CSS code to align this block.

    Hi Adam,
    Thanks for helping. The link you provided, however, is a bit complex. Can you clarify what code I should edit?

    Hi @sobe,

    Please provide your site url with temporary FTP account so I can check this matter for you.

    Hi Adam,
    My site has yet to be uploaded, but the menu and template layout is the same as the demo. Can you figure it out from the demo or another installation? I can try to upload the site otherwise, but I’m reaching my host account’s capacity and have yet to figure out best solution.

    Hi @sobe,

    Please try following these steps :

    1. Open file templatesja_teline_vtplsblocksmainnav.php and look for this code :

    <div class="t3-navbar navbar-collapse collapse">
    <jdoc:include type="<?php echo $this->getParam('navigation_type', 'megamenu') ?>" name="<?php echo $this->getParam('mm_type', 'mainmenu') ?>" />
    </div>

    update as below :

    <div class="t3-navbar navbar-collapse collapse">
    <?php if ($this->countModules('custom-search')) : ?>
    <jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p('custom-search') ?>" style="raw" />
    <?php endif ?>
    <jdoc:include type="<?php echo $this->getParam('navigation_type', 'megamenu') ?>" name="<?php echo $this->getParam('mm_type', 'mainmenu') ?>" />
    </div>

    2. Then open file templatesja_teline_vtemplateDetails.xml and look for this code :

    <position>languageswitcherload</position>

    add 1 more position as below :

    <position>languageswitcherload</position>
    <position>custom-search</position>

    3. Open file /templates/ja_teline_v/css/custom.css (if you don’t have this file, just create a new one) then add this code :

    .module-search {
    float: right;
    width: auto;
    }
    .t3-megamenu {
    float: left;
    }

    4. Then navigate to Extensions >>> Module Manager >>> put module Search in position “custom-search

    I am trying to apply this solution to the T3_bs3_blank template. I have followed the steps above but the module is not displaying. Are there any additional steps I need to follow for the T3_bs3_blank template.
    Current Joomla version is 3.4.8.
