    (8) Search, Menu, Polls and Login modules

    Those modules are Joomla! modules, you only need to go to Admin panel >> Extensions >> Module Manager >> Click New button >> choose module and publish on positions that you want.

    • Search module: is published on user4 position
    • Menu module: On demo, we publish two menus: mainmenu, othermenu and keyconcept that are published on left position. In module parameter page, you set Title, Position and choose type of menu will be displayed in Menu Name parameter, thus all menu items of that menu will be displayed on this module.
    • Login module: is published on user6 position
    • Polls module is publish on left position.

    Frequently Asked questions

    Q: I want to add a template position in to my Joomla!
    A: Go to your Administration Panel, Site -> Template Manager -> Module Positions. Add your template positions and hit the Save button.

    Q: Where can I change my footer?
    A: If you want to change or remove something in the footer, just open the “ja_justicia/footer.php” then modify it to suite your needs.

    Q: My images take a lot of white space and do not look good?
    A: The {mosimage} may show some extra padding and margin. To solve this problem, go to your Joomla! Administrator -> Mambots -> Site Mambots and change the margin and padding parameters of MOS Image mambot to 0.

    Q: Images without caption are stuck with text?
    A: It is because Joomla! generates the code different when {mosimage} has and doesn’t have its caption. So when you decide that the image will not having a caption, put it between the div tag like this <div class=”mosimage” style=”float: left;”>{mosimage}</div>

    Q: What’s a module style? And module class suffix?
    A: Almost modules offer you a parameter called Module Class Suffix. Set a value for this parameter and you will have your module’s appearance differs from the others. JA templates often provide you some module styles which can be found in Module Styles area of the guide.

    Hy there!

    Desabling all the modules after the content, i.e. on Positon 1,2,8 results in an error, throwing the footer beneath the slideshow module.

    FF 3.0.12 does not have this problem, the footer stays at the end of the page. Joomla! 1.0.12, Template installed with full-Package provided by you.

    Can you confirm this behavior and is there any fix for that?!

    Hi, In the DEMO the Slideshow is only on the Home Page. On my site it appears on every page. Please let me know how to make it so it only appears on the Home Page. Also the Poll and the Advertisements only appear on the Home page on my site, How do I get them to appear on every page?

    open your module slideshow, look under menu assignment, select menu item(s) from the list.

    in this case, select HOME since u only want your slideshow to appear on the homepage.

    hope this helps.

    Hello Patrick,

    I’m not sure JA LEAD template supports 3 COLUMNs on the articles. I suggest you review the JA LEAD manual or use the more later same concept template here 🙂

    Hope this helps.
