Hi

I’d like to change edit the width of module position ‘left’ so that it mirrors module position ‘right’….or create a new sidebar module on the left.

I’d be grateful if somebody could tell me how.

Thanks in advance

Thanks Chavan

I’ve had a quick look at the tutorial. I think I need to find mainbody.php but I can’t find it anywhere in the Community Plus template.

What is your site’s joomla version.

Thanks again Chavan

I made a new header module using that tutorial and it worked like a dream.

Trouble is, it uses header.php which I can easily locate.

There doesn’t seem to be any mainbody.php in the Community Plus template, that’s my problem.

If you could tell me where to locate it I’d be most grateful.

Thank you Chavan

I’m using Community Plus.

This is what I’ve got (the module on the right is in Position:right):

I’d like a to place a module on the left to mirror the one on the right.

My options appear to be:

When I put the new module in Position:map, I get

In Position:6, I get

In Position:12, I get

As I say, I just want a left sidebar to mirror the module in Position:Right on the right, so that the left module is directly underneath Position:user1

All the other positions produce the same result, so I’d like to edit an existing position, or create a new one………but I can’t find the file in which to do it.

As requested, Here are the details of the change I made on your site.

you need to make changes in the Template manager -> your theme -> Layout. I made changes on the Default layout.

Hi Chavan

Thank you so much for your help. It’s all looking much more like I want it.

I wonder if you could help me to tweak it a little.

There is a gap between the position you made and Position: video (where I have put a green border). It’s where the red X is in the following screenshots.

Also, when I inspect the element (the module in the new position you made), I get the following:

Please could you tell me where I can find that code.

Thank you so much for your help so far.
