How to add a top module position?

I would like to have top module position, just below the main menu. Please tell me what code should I add to index.php in order to have such module

Thanks you:

Hi,

In my example the new module-position is called fpss. Oke, here we go.

Search in the index.php to the following code:


</div>

<div id="ja-content">

<?php mosMainBody(); ?>

<?php if ( mosCountModules('banner') ) { ?>
<!-- BEGIN: BANNER -->
<div id="ja-banner">


Put the new module between <div id=”ja-content”> and <?php mosMainBody(); ?>. See below.


</div>

<div id="ja-content">

<?php if( mosCountModules('fpss') ) {?>
<?php mosLoadModules('fpss', -2); ?>
<?php } ?>

<?php mosMainBody(); ?>

<?php if ( mosCountModules('banner') ) { ?>
<!-- BEGIN: BANNER -->
<div id="ja-banner">


In the backend of your site fo to Site – Template Manager – Module Positions and add in an empty field fpss

Now you can publish a module there, the result is as in the picture (to see it live: http://naaktgeboren.swemmelaar.nl)

Kind Regards,

Peter

gosh…..I am glad to see this post. I have been trying to get fpss working in my environment and everyone was telling me it was my utah ii template. I have installed the mod and component to a t and am unable to get it to work. I am getting the swirling loading when I publish it in my banners area. did you do anything special to fpss to get it working within the template?

Hi Jarrod,

No I didn’t do anything special. But you can search on the forums on JoomlaWorks. I believe I have seen more questions about this problem there.

Kind Regards,
Peter

Sorry for late reply, but I was on vacation. 😉

Dear Peter,

Thanks for your wonderful posting and help. I am looking for this modification too. But as I am new, I am still learning to make modification like you did. I am sure I will get it. It will be really helpful if I can have your index.php file and related CSS files you modified for me to study. Is that possible Petter?

Thanks in advance for your help and kindness.

Best regards,
Eka
