[ja_antich]

Hi there, im new to the site, im starting with joomla and im playing with JA_Nex (sorry for my english, its horrible, i know lol) and i was wondering if
there was any way to add new position to the template.

I did a lot of editing and i could modify some existing positions to suit my needs but this time i need to add a new position and i dont know how to do it, googled a bit and nobody came with a simple answer (or one that works for me) so i figured that was better to ask here. =)

Im trying to add a new position next to "social" position (wich i already modified to insert a weather module in that place) i dont care if its to the right
or to the left, i can edit the position later, but i dont even know how to make a copy of it so i can edit it, any help ?

Im using Joomla 2.5 !!

Thanks =)

Hi

Goto this file \templates\ja_nex\blocks\header.php at line 35 you have this code for the social position

<?php if($this->countModules('social')) : ?>
<div id="ja-social">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="social" />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

You can copy it to create a new position so the new code for your header.php file will be like this below


<?php if($this->countModules('social')) : ?>
<div id="ja-social">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="social" />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($this->countModules('mymodule')) : ?>
<div id="ja-mymodule">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="mymodule" />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

Then open this file \templates\ja_nex\templateDetails.xml and add the name of the new position

<position>mymodule</position>

Then make your changes in the \templates\ja_nex\css\template.css for the ja-mymodule class in the topheader section like is for ja-social
