I am trying to understand module positions with the new T3 Templates, but I’m struggling. I would like to move the positions of User 1-5 to be below the main content but above the bottom (still in the white area of the template) spanned across under the right position as well. I tried cloning the default layout, moving the block down, and setting the profile, but it’s not changing and the slideshow disappears when I change the default layout. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

It all depends on how you want it. For instance adding the code below will give you 5 modules under the content.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="top-panel" type="modules" style="raw" main-inner="1">top-panel</block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="header" type="header" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user1,user2,user3,user4,user5</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="35">
<block name="inset1" width="18">left</block>
<block name="content-mass-top">slideshow</block>
<block name="right1">right</block>
<block name="content-bottom" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user31,user32,user33,user34,user35</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight" main-inner="1" >user6,user7,user8,user9,user10</block>
<block name="footer" type="footer"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

Change that to the below and it will encompass the module positions too.

<block name="content-mass-bottom" type="spotlight" main-inner="1">user31,user32,user33,user34,user35</block>

Thanks for the quick response! If I have only 3 modules the widths they don’t span evenly across like they do in the top modules. Any suggestions?

Dear Abrill!

Could you give your site link? I think there’re some missing in CSS code.

Dear Abrill!

Please edit this code:

.ja-box-right {
position: absolute;
right: 0;
}

to

.ja-box-right {
right: 0;
}


in /plugins/system/jat3/base-themes/default/css/layout.css line 108.

This will help you to fix this bug.

Regards!
