I want module position “social” between “message” and “component”

1. I created a module position in a file templateDetails.xml:
<position>social</position>
2. Then I added in /blocks/mainbody/two-sidebar.php this line:

<div id="t3-content" class="t3-content col-xs-12 col-md-6 col-md-push-3">
<?php if ($this->countModules('social')) : ?>
<div class="t3-social">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p('social') ?>" style="T3Xhtml" />
</div>
<?php endif ?>
<?php if($this->hasMessage()) : ?>
<jdoc:include type="message" />
<?php endif ?>
<jdoc:include type="component" />
</div>
<!-- //MAIN CONTENT -->

Everything is fine in the backend (module position appears in the layout tab and in module configuration) , but in frontend module does not appear.

This I have successfully made ​​with template t3_blank, but with template purity_III can not.

My site is on http://emreza.net/test/, and module should appear above the content

Thanks in advance

Just a quick look as I’m dashing out the door…

I am seeing the Social position right above the content area:
http://emreza.net/test/index.php?tp=1

Perhaps you need to check the page assignments for the module?
Just a thought.

Thanks for the prompt reply
I see position, and I can see the module (social share) too, when I type http://emreza.net/test/index.php?tp=1.
But when I type only http://emreza.net/test I can’t see the module.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

Again…have you checked to make sure you have assigned the module to a page…and that it is enabled?
The position area will show using the ?tp=1 trick – no matter if there is a module assigned to it or not.
Only when you actually assign the module to a page – and enable it – will it appear.

Yes I checked the settings in the backend. I see position, and I can see the module (social share) too, when I type http://emreza.net/test/index.php?tp=1.
But when I type only http://emreza.net/test I can’t see the module.

Hi Midhat,

To add new position in mainbody blocks of Purity III template, you can follow steps below:

+ Step 1:

Open the templates/purity_iii/tpls/blocks/mainbody.php file and define parameter ‘social’=>’social’ position, see this screenshot

+ Step 2:

Open the templates/purity_iii/tpls/blocks/mainbody/two-sidebar.php file and define social position with this code block.

<?php if ($this->countModules($vars['social'])) : ?>
<div class="t3-social">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p($vars['social']) ?>" style="T3Xhtml" />
</div>
<?php endif ?>

see the screenshot:

You can test it with the default layout, apply the same with other Purity III template style if you want to add new position.

Let me know if it helps.
