Hi,
I am trying to find the topmenu-left module position in Ja Nex as it is something that I need to use. Is there somewhere this can be turned on?

Also how to I delete or even find the date position as that seems to be in the topmenu-left position.

Regards
Colin

Hi

You can use the /?tp=1 suffix to see where is your topmenu-left position

<blockquote>Also how to I delete or even find the date position as that seems to be in the topmenu-left position.</blockquote>

You can search in this file templatesja_nexblockstopmenu.php

[PHP]<p class=”ja-day”>
<?php
echo “<span class=”date”>”.date (‘d’).”</span>”;
echo “<span class=”month”>”.JText::_(strtoupper(date (‘F’))).”</span>”;
echo “<span class=”year”>”.date (‘Y’).”</span>”;

?>
</p>

<?php if($this->countModules(‘topmenu-left’)) : ?>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”topmenu-left” />
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($this->countModules(‘topmenu-right’)) : ?>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”topmenu-right” />
<?php endif; ?>[/PHP]

Here you can find all you need.

Regards

Thanks for that.
I can see that the position is in the template, but cant figure out how to use it.

Example: I wish to add a banner module on the right and another on the left. I can select the position topmenu-right but their is not a position topmenu-left to choose, its just not there to select.

Is there a way to make this available in ‘select position’?

Thanks for help.

Colin

I cant figure out how to get one banner on left and one on right, they keep going in on top of each other? should I be trying to do this with some css code or surely they should just appear on right and left.

Thanks

You can create some css code to align the positions as you need.

Hi

You can also solve your issue in this way

1) Open your templatesja_nexblockstopmenu.php

This is your actual file
[PHP]
<p class=”ja-day”>
<?php
echo “<span class=”date”>”.date (‘d’).”</span>”;
echo “<span class=”month”>”.JText::_(strtoupper(date (‘F’))).”</span>”;
echo “<span class=”year”>”.date (‘Y’).”</span>”;

?>
</p>

<?php if($this->countModules(‘topmenu-left’)) : ?>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”topmenu-left” />
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($this->countModules(‘topmenu-right’)) : ?>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”topmenu-right” />
<?php endif; ?>[/PHP]

2) Change it to

[PHP]<p class=”ja-day”>
<?php
echo “<span class=”date”>”.date (‘d’).”</span>”;
echo “<span class=”month”>”.JText::_(strtoupper(date (‘F’))).”</span>”;
echo “<span class=”year”>”.date (‘Y’).”</span>”;

?>
</p>

<?php if($this->countModules(‘topbanner’)) : ?>
<div id=”ja-topbanner”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”topbanner” />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>[/PHP]

3) Add this line to your TemplateDetails.xml

<position>topbanner</position>

4) Create some css code for the class #ja-topbanner in your template.css ( width height color etc. etc.)

5) Create a custom-html module with your banner image and publish it in the topbanner position

I think you can solve in this way

Hi thanks for that, its sorted me out.

May I ask one more question. I am using two banners on top of each other, see attached. I just want to create a little space between them see attached. Im not sure if I should be adjusting the User 3 position or somewhere in the banner component.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, pleeease?

Regards
Colin
