Q: I want to add a template position in to my Joomla!
A: Go to your Administration Panel, Site -> Template Manager -> Module Positions. Add your template positions and hit the Save button.Q: Where can I change my footer?
A: If you want to change or remove something in the footer, just open the “ja_justicia/footer.php” then modify it to suite your needs.Q: My images take a lot of white space and do not look good?
