Hello,

I`m looking to publish a module or button on my homepage only for Guests, not for registered ones. (ex : LOGIN). Just like Gavick is doing on this site. Anyone did this before and can help me ?

PS: Im using Yourshop template. Dont know if is joomla or template modification.

Thank you.

The easy way if you're using J1.5.x is to install NoNumber Advanced Module Manager it offers lots of ways to apply conditions to modules. If you install NoNumber Ext. Manager you can install advanced module manager and other plugins and modules from NoNumber using it. It will also give you an easy way to keep upto date with the versions, Peter updates code regularly!

You could also try MetaMod which is another extension which allows conditional control of site content and modules etc. You can check it out on the JED that link is to the developers page because there are two packages MetaMod and MetaTemplate Pro and Free.

I can give a shot for manual modify as well if explodedk can provide me details.
Simple case: I want the last button from menu to be Login for guests and Logout for members.

Thank you

Hi

I'm not sure if You'll be able to make it in the menu, but for sure You can simply move login module to display in this place and style similar to the menu, so noone will know the difference :)

That is what i`m looking for, tryed to publish a new login module. Problem is i cannot choose menu position from dropdown in this template (Yourshop) and even if i choose any positions from menu2 to menu10 is not showed up.

I miss something.... :]

PS: When i do preview from template manager i cannot see any position for menu style.

Hi

I suggest to use any module position. Add a module class suffix. For example "logininmenu" and than use the css:

Code: Select all
.logininmenu {
position:absolute;
right:100px;
top:200px;
z-index:9999;
}


and set it in right position.
