Hello kobenes,

I change to:

<blocks name=”middle” colwidth=”22″>
<block name=”content-top” type=”spotlight”>user1,user2,user3</block>
<block name=”content-mass-top” style=”jaraw”>content-mass-top</block>
<block name=”content-mass-bot” style=”jaraw”>content-mass-bot</block>
<block name=”inset2″>left</block>
<block name=”right2″>right</block>
</blocks>

Including content-mass-bot and changing order of content-mass-top and content-top. But, nothing happens.

What I am doing wrong?

Thank you

What you mean with “nothing happened” ? Did you publish modules on your new module positions? You should write your position name manually (by your keyboard) in the Module Manager, because you didn’t add the module position name in the template XML file.

From the template manager, you should click on Layouts tab and click on Edit button for your currently-used layout. A popup window will be opened with your block codes.
You can add whereever you want publish your modules on your template…

<block name="module-name">position(s)-name(s)</block>
After you did that, than you should publish your module(s), whith sanme positions that you just created, manually enter them for module position.

As I can see in the picture you want to add this module position above the content. So you should add it before content block, so it will be after like something: <block name=”topsl” type=”spotlight” main-inner=”1″>user1,user2,user3,user4,user5</block> </blocks>
I hope this helps…

Hello kobenes. Thanks for your good will.

Following you I can publish modulos in bottom position, but none where I want to do. I don’t have <block name=”topsl”…>

Take a look of my current layout (default from joomlart, I just insert line suggested by you):

<?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=”top-panel” type=”modules” style=”jaraw” main-inner=”1″>top-panel</block>
<block name=”header” type=”header” main-inner=”1″></block>
<block name=”topbar” type=”topbar”></block>
<block name=”mainnav” type=”mainnav”></block>
<block name=”cpanel” type=”usertools/cpanel”></block>
</blocks>
<blocks name=”middle” colwidth=”22″>
<block name=”content-mass-top” style=”jaraw”>content-mass-top</block>
<block name=”content-top” type=”spotlight”>user1,user2,user3</block>
<block name=”iscas”>chamaiscascapa</block> <—- LINE SUGGESTED BY YOU
<block name=”inset2″>left</block>
<block name=”right2″>right</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name=”bottom” style=”xhtml”>
<block name=”botsl” type=”spotlight” main-inner=”1″>user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block> <- WHEN I INSERTED HERE, WORKS, BUT IN WRONG PLACE
<block name=”navhelper” type=”navhelper” main-inner=”1″></block>
<block name=”footer” type=”footer”></block>
<block name=”ie-rounded” type=”ie-rounded” no-main=”1″ no-wrap=”1″></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

Many thanks

<block name=”header” type=”header” main-inner=”1″></block>
<block name=”topbar” type=”topbar”></block>
<block name=”mainnav” type=”mainnav”></block>
<block name=”cpanel” type=”usertools/cpanel”></block>
</blocks>
<blocks name=”middle” colwidth=”22″>
<block name=”content-mass-top” style=”jaraw”>content-mass-top</block>
<block name=”content-top” type=”spotlight”>user1,user2,user3</block>
<block name=”iscas” style=”jaraw”>chamaiscascapa</block>
<block name=”inset2″>left</block>
<block name=”right2″>right</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name=”bottom” style=”xhtml”>
<block name=”botsl” type=”spotlight” main-inner=”1″>user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block>
<block name=”navhelper” type=”navhelper” main-inner=”1″></block>
<block name=”footer” type=”footer”></block>
<block name=”ie-rounded” type=”ie-rounded” no-main=”1″ no-wrap=”1″></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

Anyone?
Please.
I really need to insert more positions, and all suggestions that I’ve received simply don’t work.

Thanks

It you check my post it will show you how to add 5 new module positions…. And the template you are using uses content-top and content-bottom…

I have posted a example of what I am using so just copy it, and you are good to go!

You can move the blocks around in order to get the effect you…

Here is example where I moved the content-bottom setting to get the effect you want. But just move it around until you have what you want…

<blocks name=”middle” colwidth=”26″>
<block name=”content-mass-top” style=”jaraw”>content-mass-top</block>
<block name=”content-top” type=”spotlight”>user1,user2,user3</block>
<block name=”content-bottom” type=”spotlight”>user12,user13,user14</block>
<block name=”inset2″>left</block>
<block name=”right2″>right</block>
<block name=”content-mass-bottom” type=”spotlight” special=”right” specialwidth=”26″ main-inner=”1″>user15,user16</block>

I hope this helps…. almost forgot the special=”right” will give you a 75% / 25% module position layout just like in the Droid Template…
