Use of Logo Space

Hi,

I am currently using the Music State Template on Joomla 2.5 and working on a multi-language implementation. Now I am wondering if it might be possible in any way to use the space, currently occupied by the Logo in the top left corner for another module? Preferably I would like to put the language switcher modul right there.

Any advice on how to achieve this would be very much appreciated!

Cheers

Hi

Here You will find an instruction about how to add new module position: https://www.gavick.com/documentation/jo ... -position/

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I followed every step in the tutorial, however it did not create the results I had hoped for.

In either case, the module position I would like to use, should already exist as far as I can tell. I would love to use the position of the "login" or "logout" button, however, this does not seem to work. The only thing that happens when I put a module in that position is that the login/logout button reappears.

Is there any way to just put the language switcher module there instead?

Thanks again!

Hi

I'm afraid login module position is placed in popup and button is appearing only so this popup can be triggered. So adding a new module position is neccessary. Add this position, publish language switcher module in it and show me Your site, so I'll help with placing it where You want.

Hi,

and thank you very much for your help again! You can access my page at http://www.base-jumper.de

Currently the page should have two language switch modules. The one in the "lang" module position provided in the template already as well as in "langswitch" which I created. The "lang" module at the bottom of the page works perfectly fine. A copy of the module, which I would love to see to the left or right of the main menu items (which I had hoped the "langswitch" module position would do), however, does not appear.

I'm guessing that my error is in my default.php file, so I have attached it along with the other files I was asked to modify. If you require any other files or information please let me know.

Again, I very much appreciate your help

Hi

Code is correct, just the place You have placed it in was a little bit unlucky Header area is disabled if static menu is enabled. Please use the attache file instead. Let me know so I'll check and will adjust the look of it a little bit.

Alright. So, I am using the new "default.php" file now. The header has changed now but the language module still isn't showing up yet.
I feel like I am still being unlucky

Hi

No. This time it was expected I needed to see the module in code to be able to work with firebug and add some style to make it show over the menu. Please add this code to override.css and make sure override is enabled in template settings.

Code: Select all

#gkLangswitch {
    position: absolute;
    top: 20px;
    z-index: 10000;
}


Truly beautiful! Thank you so very much, you just saved my day!
