I’m using Muzic template with jreviews and I know I’m missing something in the documentation. How do I get modules to display on the article/detail page. I don’t want to use the Alternative Layout that came with Muzic. Do I need to make alternative layouts if so how?

What am I missing?

Thanks

Actually as far as modules positioning is concerned you are not missing anything in our documentation on “JA Music”. It’s written to introduce you the main features of this template itself, assuming that you are already familiar with Joomla CMS and main concepts around it. Hence there is nothing in it on modules positioning.

Both Joomla’s own modules, like, for example, Login module, Main Menu module etc, and JoomlArt modules, like, for example, JA Slideshow module, JA Login module, JA Sidenews module etc, and EasyBlog modules and JReviews modules positioning-wise work on the same principle.

Please have a look at this comprehensive tutorial at http://www.siteground.com/tutorials/joomla/joomla-positions.htm to familiarize yourself with Joomla/JoomlArt/3-rd party modules and their positioning.

Hope it helps

Regards,

Alex

I would like to use the default article layout instead of any of the alternative article layouts. My problem is the Share On and Buy on Amazon buttons don’t appear by default on the default layout. I have found code relating to both in the alternative track layout directory of templatesja_muzichtmlcom_contentarticledefau lt-track.php I copied the following code to the default layout:
<?php if(isset($metadata->jcontent_amazonsell) && $metadata->jcontent_amazonsell !=” ) : ?>
<a class=”btn btn-source btn-buy” href=”<?php echo $metadata->jcontent_amazonsell;?>”><?php echo JText::_(‘TPL_BUY_ON_AMAZON’); ?></a>
<?php endif;?>
<button class=”btn btn-source btn-share” data-toggle=”modal” href=”#myModal”><?php echo JText::_(‘TPL_SHARE_ON’); ?></button>
<div class=”modal hide fade” id=”myModal”>
<div class=”modal-header”>
<a class=”close” data-dismiss=”modal”>×</a>
<h3><?php echo JText::_(‘TPL_SHARE_ON’); ?></h3>
The Share On button now appears and works, but the Buy on Amazon button doesn’t and there is an error in a yellow box: Warning
Error loading feed data
Is the Buy on Amazon Button a third party module? What other files, folders, or code might need to be applied to the default article layout for the Buy on Amazon button to work? Any assistance or ideas is appreciated.

Sorry Alex. My post here in this forum is more related to the question is the Buy on Amazon button a third party module button? I offered the other information to indicate my situation and what I’m dealing with. I figured since the button is on the article page and could be a module that you might have some info about it specifically. Any help is appreciated.

I can see that our developer Saguaros has more than comprehensively addressed this question for you in his post #8 at this thread.

I am sure by now you are clear what JA Muzic’s “Buy on Amazon” button is all about and am now closing this thread as Solved. Please feel free to create a new thread should you have new issues.

Regards,

Alex
