    Hi,

    I make a custom template with the Blank theme of JA T3 V2.

    I want to make in the Content-mass-top position two rows of spotlight modules type.

    I make this code, but it’s not working :

    <blocks name="middle" fixheight="1">
    <block name="left1" width="34">left</block>
    <block name="content-mass-top" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user1,user2,user3</block>
    <block name="content-mass-top1" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user4,user5,user6</block>
    <block name="content-top" type="spotlight">user7,user8</block>
    <block name="content-mass-bottom" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user9,user10,user11,user12,user13</block>
    <block name="inset2">right</block>
    </blocks>

    I tried many things, many names, but nothing works.

    What is the problem? How can I fix it ?

    Thanks.

    For that to work you would have to define a block called “content-mass-top1” as there is currently no definition for it. However if you publish modules in “User1” twice the second will appear below the first so that could be an option.

    If you really want a second block copy plugins>system>jat3>base-themes>default>page>default.php and pace the copy in templates>your_template>page>default.php (you will have to create the directory. your_template is whatever you name your template to be)

    In that file you will find the following code. Simply add the bit I have highlighted in red.

    Many thanks you for your advices and instructions.
    However, I use a personal folder in the local folder (so I never erase the original files), I thought and I told myself : “copy this file to a folder named ‘page’ ! ” and … it worked!

    It’s works great !
    Merci beaucoup ! (as we say).

    Whaou ! T3 Frameworks is really powerfull !
    My dream is to have a book with all the possibilities detailed! 😎

    I return to my work,

    Thanks again,

    I come to add something.

    Because I added a new module position called : ‘content-mass-top1’, I encountered a problem with the height of my main container. I copied the file called “fixheight.php” in my own blocks folder and I modified the code like this :

    Old code [Line 20] :

    fixHeight (['ja-current-content', 'ja-inset1', 'ja-inset2'],['ja-main'], ['ja-content-mass-top','ja-content-mass-bottom']);

    New code [Line 20] :

    fixHeight (['ja-current-content', 'ja-inset1', 'ja-inset2'],['ja-main'], ['ja-content-mass-top','ja-content-mass-top1','ja-content-mass-bottom']);

    Maybe it’ll help someone. 🙂

    Hi acac7a,

    Did you have any problem with the “width” parameter in your xml layout after you add the new module position?

    Thank you!

    Hi humusjey.

    I have no problem with the width parameter, what kind of problem have you meet?
