Could someone please help me out? I'm trying to add a banner ad 468x60 to the right of the logo area. Not sure how to properly get rid of login and place the correct space for banner.

Anybody have any ideas on this? It looks like this is not a regular module position. It's the "register" position.

I would also like to just turn the login off, but I don't see the option in the module or template manager. Help with this would be great. The user login is only for a standard joomla login, I want my users to register via the JomSocial login area.

OK guys, here's how I did it.


  • in module manager, disable positions "register" and "login"
  • modify template.xml file and add new position, I used "logobanner"
  • modify wn2/layouts/blocks/logo.php and remove all line regarding login above and below
  • in logo.php, replace the bottom code for login with this:
    Code: Select all
       <?php if($this->modules('logobanner')) : ?>
       <div id="logobanner">
          <jdoc:include type="modules" name="logobanner" style="none" />
       </div>
       <?php endif; ?>   

  • make a new banner module in the new module position
  • in css/override.css, add this to get rid of the border:
    Code: Select all
    div#logobanner {
    padding-top:10px;
    float: right;
    width: 468px;
    height: 60px;
    }

    div.banneritem { border-bottom: none; }

I also had my logo area modified as well with the following:
Code: Select all
h1#gkLogo {
    width: 429px;
    height: 85px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    float: left;
    top: 11px;
}

h1#gkLogo a {width: 429px; height: 85px; }

#gkLogoWrap { min-height: 96px; }
