THANKS...

Added as described and workin perfect...

you have to add the module positions within the templatedetails.xml

<positions>
<position>hornav</position>
<position>breadcrumbs</position>
<position>banner</position>
<position>left</position>
<position>right</position>
<position>top</position>
<position>search</position>
<position>topsl</position>
<position>user1</position>
<position>user2</position>
<position>user3</position>
<position>user4</position>
<position>user5</position>
<position>user6</position>
<position>user7</position>
<position>user8</position>
<position>user9</position>
<position>footer</position>
<position>syndicate</position>
<position>debug</position>
</positions>


Simply add another line(s) with <position>your module position</position> and place it in the order it will appear within the list.

Incorrect. You do not have to modify the XML file. After you have installed your banner/adsense module just type the name of the position into the "Position" field and make sure it is published to all pages. It should only be visible in Kunena.

Okay, is another option. I modified this file to the list of modulñe positions and work for me.

Less work my way and no files need altering.

Easiest way is the way i wrote in the documentation wiki (same as what grumblemarc said)

docs.kunena.com/index.php/Module_Positions

Now if we can get people to actually read the Wiki.

Typed!

Working well! :laugh:


Thank you!

If anyone is in a hurry,

1. create new module position (it will be saved as "kunena_msg" because of the 10 chars limit)

2. open phpMyadmin, navigate to jos_template_positions table, click the structure tab and change "position" it has value "varchar(10)", all you have to do is click on the pencil (edit) and change the value from 10 to 20.

3. then navigate to jos_modules table and also change the "positions" value from varchar length 10 to 20

4. again open jos_template_positions table, clck the browse tab and click the pencil next to the "kunena_msg" position and change it's name to the desired banner position (ex.kunena_msg_2)

now you can assign any module to the new position

note: this is for Joomla 1.0.xx only!

I tried this (using kunena_msg_1) but could not get it to work. I'm running Kunena 1.0.9 on a Joomla 1.0.15 install. Also it seems to tax the server so I shut the module off.
