I would like to place the JAMasshead on the home screen just below the video and before parallax…
Is this possible, or would it require a major customization?
Thanks in advance…

That need pretty much customisation from JA Appolio template. You might need to hire a developer to help on this. Here are some steps for your consideration.

+ Add new block into the home-1.php and default.php files

Open the templates/ja_appolio/tpls/home-1.php and default.php files:

Change

<?php $this->loadBlock('video') ?>

To

<?php $this->loadBlock('video') ?>
<?php $this->loadBlock('new-position') ?>

+ Create and store a new position file in template block folder: templates/ja_appolio/tpls/blocks/new-position.php. The file should look like:


<?php
/**
* @package T3 Blank
* @copyright Copyright (C) 2005 - 2012 Open Source Matters, Inc. All rights reserved.
* @license GNU General Public License version 2 or later; see LICENSE.txt
*/

defined('_JEXEC') or die;
?>

<?php if ($this->countModules('new-position')) : ?>
<!-- SLIDESHOW -->
<div class="wrap t3-video hidden-xs <?php $this->_c('new-position') ?>">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p('new-position') ?>" style="T3Xhtml" />
</div>
<!-- //SLIDESHOW -->
<?php endif ?>


+ Download and Install JA Masshead module from download page here and assign it to the new-position position

+ Followng our userguide to work with JA Masshead module here

Hope that helps.

Thanks a bunch…
I’ll consider the effort…

Just to clearify:
Do I need to edit both home-1.php AND default.php?
The position shows in the template manager, but it dosen’t show in the positions list in module manager?

<blockquote>Do I need to edit both home-1.php AND default.php?</blockquote>

Yes, you need to change both files. Please see the screenshots for reference:

+ home-1.php file

+ default.php file

<blockquote>The position shows in the template manager, but it dosen’t show in the positions list in module manager?</blockquote>

You can add position via the templates/ja_appolio/templateDetails.xml file:

Change

<position>debug</position>

To

<position>debug</position>
<position>new-position</position>
