Question banner positions?

Hi,

Unfortunately you are correct. Joomla 1.0.x is limited to 10 chars on module positions. Totally artificial limit but never the less. We will need to see how we can offer a work around for this.

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!

Hallo,

Sorry, but don't understand above?

I'm using Joomla 1.5.9 with Kunena 1.08

How can I add banners as described above in Joomla 1.5.9? Where to create the Joomla module positions?

Withe regards,
Vipyammer

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.
