Hello, I want to put Joomla?s modules in the K2 directory-aside on the items page. By now, there is one sidebar for K2 elements (Gmap, Authorinfo and Related Content) but I want to use my own content like I do in Joomla (I mean, use banners, custom html, whatever module i want) so I think the best idea to reach that is to put a Joomla position into the K2 directory-aside area.

I think that I could do add this module position in /templates/ja_directory/html/com_k2/directory/item.php
Is this possible?
What do I have to add?

Thank you in advance.

Hi nsca,

This is special template which overrides the K2 item view so that K2 item page will have specific layout as now. It doesn’t include position so that you can assign a normal module there. Kindly check that file: /templates/ja_directory/html/com_k2/directory/item.php and you will see how it’s created.

Hi saguaros, thank you for your answer.

Please check my question, im in /templates/ja_directory/html/com_k2/directory/item.php looking for a code that call a specific module or position. I think it is absolutely possible, my problem is I dont know nothing about PHP so i dont know how to call a module.

There is a simple way to pute a module there like you do in some footers?

Actually, the content in the right side of an K2 item is content related to that item and we style so that it looks like module. There is no way to add position there because this belongs to the main content of site.

If that’s static content / image, you can open ‘item.php’ file as above and add this snippet of code:

<div class="t3-module module bg-gray itemAuthorLatest">
<div class="module-inner">
    <h3 class="module-title "><span>Title here</span></h3>
    <div class="module-ct">
        <img alt="" src="/images/joomlart/about-us.jpg">
    </div>
</div>
</div>
