Greetings Joomlart:

I’d like to integrate the JA Top Panel into the JA NEX Template but am not exactly sure how to go about accomplishing the objective:

Referencing the link below:

http://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/ja-top-pannel-module-for-joomla-2-5-for-userguide/

I’m not sure how to create the ‘toppanel’ position with the relevant parameters. Could you provide some guidance please?

Thanks so much,

Andy

Hi Andy,

You can try to add a new position named top-panel for this JA Nex template by opening file: templatesja_nextemplateDetails.xml

add this line of code:

<position>top-panel</position>

inside <position> tag


<positions>
<position>right</position>
<position>accordion</position>

................................................

<position>top-panel</position>
</positions>


then go to backend settings of JA Top Panel module and assign it to this new position.

Note that you may also style a bit for it as by default, this module is not included in this template.

Regards

Perfect. I wasn’t sure if it required creating a new block and modifying the .ini file as well. I’ll give that a go and apprise you with an update. Much appreciated!

It’s appears that I don’t have the required block and .ini configured so is there a template that you can recommend with the block/.ini that I can grab from?

I believe there is a “Top Panel” included with the JA Social template.
