For the love of God, can’t I get a joomla module like this http://wonderwall.msn.com/ for ja wall???
Man…I have been checking for days now, why the hell is this so hard to find. I need the footer scrolling module like the one on wonderwall.
Please someone point me in the right direction since im sure there is something like that somewhere out there.

Pretty sure there’s no module that does that at the moment… even if there is, it’s not responsive.

You can achieve what you want by some coding and a custom module position in your template:

1. Add a custom <div> in your template’s index.php file

2. Load a custom module position inside that <div> with following code
[PHP]<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”your_position_name_here” />[/PHP]

3. Add the same module position in your template’s file “templateDetails.xml”

4. Go to your joomla admin and publish your scroller module in the custom position just created.

5. You have to style your <div> created at step #1 above by css to achieve the look you want (width 100%, position fixed to bottom and so forth).

PS: You can find a lot of scroller modules out there that you can publish into this position. For example see Gavick’s highlighter http://www.gavick.com/highlighter-gk4.html

wow that’s very cool the wonderwall of msn – almost as cool and crisp as the Ja Wall – I especially love the advertisement that pops down briefly – and I mean briefly!:)

How could this be achieved on Ja Wall?

Hi Guys,

Open file index.php in JA Wall template, go to line 248, there is line of code: <jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”debug” /> and add following code to underneath it:
<div id=”footer” style=”display: block; bottom: -1px; position: fixed;”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”footer” />
</div>
Then go back to backend and add module to footer position .
That is only simple example for your purpose. Hope that can help you.

Regards,
