Hi want to integrate more module positions out of the site – on top and on left – to positioning for example the advertising form “Tandem Ad”.

How I can do this?

Hi proterra,

You can add new module positions out of your site.
Log into the Joomla backend for this step.

Steps to add a Joomla Template Module Position

1. Edit the template index.php file to add the new module code.
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”YOURNEWMODULE” style=”none” />
It will help if you know some html and css.

2.Edit the templateDetails.xml file.
Look for the <positions> section of the file. ensure that the name of the module matches the module postion you added to the index.php file in step 1

<positions>
<position>user1</position>
<position>user2</position>
<position>user3</position>
<position>YOURNEWMODULE</position>
</positions>

3.Assign a module to your newly created module position.

4.Save the changes.
If you do not see your module position you may need to logout and into the Joomla backend.

Regards,
Pallavi

But where I find this? The Index.php in the template folder has only this code:
<?php
if (class_exists(‘T3Template’)) {
$tmpl = T3Template::getInstance($this);
$tmpl->render();
return;
} else {
//Need to install or enable JAT3 Plugin
echo JText::_(‘Missing jat3 framework plugin’);
}

Hi proterra,
JA T3 frameworks seperates template’s skeleton to some blocks(header,topsl,content,botsl,footter) and the width of obove blocks is 100% of browser window so it is difficult to add more postions stretch vertical in 2 or more than 2 blocks ,but i suggest you add use following way to creat left and right banner for you on left and right side, please do it step by step :
1.Open default.php file in pluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultpage folder, find following code section at about line 38 :

<div id="ja-wrapper">
<a name="Top" id="Top"></a>

change it to :

<div id="ja-wrapper">
<div id="ja-leftbanner"><jdoc:include type="modules" name="left-banner" /></div>
<div id="ja-rightbanner"><jdoc:include type="modules" name="right-banner" /></div>
<a name="Top" id="Top"></a>
2.Open template.css file in templates/ja_teline_iii_v2/css folder,find following code section at about line 697 :

#ja-wrapper {}
change to :

#ja-wrapper {position:relative;}
3.Continue, in template.css file add following code section to bottom of it :

#ja-leftbanner {
position:absolute;
top:0px;
left:0px;
width:200px;
}
#ja-rightbanner {
position:absolute;
top:0px;
right:0px;
width:200px;
}

200px is a sample width, you can change it by your value.
Now you can put your banners modules to left-banner and right-banner position in backend and refresh frontend to see.
Hope can help you.

Sorry guys, but now is more confusion:
I would like to add the same banner left and right, i am using the “ja_ironis” first part you asked to edit the “index.php” and the “templateDetails.xml” i did this and when i go to some components i can see the modulo name but dont appear online

then you asked to edit the “default.php” and the “template.css file in templates/ja_teline_iii_v2/css”
first problem.. in that template.css file i can not see the code: #ja-wrapper {} this code i find in the
core/themes/blue/css/template.css, It’s the same???

then you asked to add a code in the end of the template.css (the one in the core/themes/blue or in the css??)

and after do this i also need to to the fist tutorial? (edit the edit the “index.php” and the “templateDetails.xml”)

Thank you for explain this, i really need it.
Regards

I can’t understand this part, you create new position, then come to the back-end manager of that menu, assign the position that you have created.

No, please add in file templates/yourtemplate_folder/css/template.css
If you couldn’t see it, then add a new line for it.

In JA Ironis, a div tag with id=”ja-wrapper” has already existed so just add

#ja-wrapper {position:relative;}
to
templatesja_ironiscsstemplate.css
It will work.
