I need to use user area positioning

Hi, I need to use the user area position for to positioning lenguages flags. Now user area position is for register and I only can disable it through template administrator, but I can't positioning another module in this. How can I do it?

Hi,
the easest way to achieve that is adding new position in this area. Please read this https://www.gavick.com/documentation/jo ... -position/

OK, thanks, I will try it.

Hello Konrad,

I woul like to use the login, register position for custom html.

I followed the steps of creating a new position in templateDetails.xml and added the template position in the gk.const.php.

I've tried to add the following code in the default.php about line 82. I can select the position "logotop" but the result is that mu output is shown beneath the banner position. How can I use or adress the register or login position or location on the right top side?

<?php if($this->modules(‘logotop’)) : ?>
<div>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”logotop” style=”<?php echo $this->module_styles['logotop']; ?>” />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Thanks a lot

@Jakke17, without url I can't help you.

The url is

www.grafikal.be

login: Fiery

Please try add some suffix to your new module for example ' mysuffix' and then add to override.css

Code: Select all

.suffix {
    float:right;
    width:auto;
}


and remeber enable override.css option in template settings.
And just in case change code for new position from article to this one:

Code: Select all

<?php if($this->API->modules('logotop')) : ?>
<div>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="logotop" style="<?php echo $this->module_styles['logotop']; ?>" />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>


Thanks Konrad,

I added the suffix to my custom html module. Added the style to overide.css and enabled overide in the advanced template setting.

I've checked my output with firebug and this is the result

<div class="custommysuffix">
<p>TEST Logotop</p>
<p>Position top right</p>
</div>

But still the same result

Regards,

Jan

It won't work because class of your div is custommysuffix and code in your override.css is:

Code: Select all

.mysuffix {
    float: right;
    width: auto;
}


so you have to change it to:

Code: Select all

.custommysuffix {
    float: right;
    width: auto;
}


Konrad,

I've done the correction but it is not the result I want to obtain.

I want to use the user or login area at the right top corner.

See screenshot for the position

So you need paste your code for new module position inside

Code: Select all

<section id="gkPageTop">
    <div class="gkPage">
      //put here                       
    </div>
</section>


becasue now you have it inside:

Code: Select all

<section class="gkColumnLeft" id="gkContent">               
   <div id="gkContentWrap">                               
     // now you have here 
  </div>                
</section>


Konrad,

I'm not following. I'v added the code in the custom html module (adminstration part).
Still no result.
Where do I have to add the code you suggested?

Thanks for all the help so far

Did you edit some files from layouts folder ? As it is described in tutorial.

Konrad,

I followed the steps of creating a new position in templateDetails.xml and added the template position in the gk.const.php.

Then I've added your code into the default.php.

templateDetails.xml
<positions>
<!-- Template specific Module Positions -->
<position>breadcrumb</position>
<position>bannertop</position>
<position>social</position>
<position>login</position>
<position>footer_nav</position>
<position>search</position>
<position>logotop</position>

<!-- STANDARD Module Positions -->
<position>sidebar</position>
<position>inset</position>
<position>mainbody</position>

gk.const.php
$GK_TEMPLATE_MODULE_STYLES = array(

'breadcrumb' => 'none',

'login' => 'none',

'lang' => 'none',

'search' => 'none',

'footer_nav' => 'none',

'logotop' => 'none',

That's what I've done

So you need do this part too with code I gave you in previous post

All template files are located in the layouts folder. Default.php is the default template view, and it contains code blocks located in layouts/blocks. The module may be added directly into the default.php file or to one of these blocks. Paste the following code:
<?php if($this->modules(‘myposition’)) : ?>
<div>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”myposition” style=”<?php echo $this->module_styles['myposition']; ?>” />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

To make the module match the look of the template, you may need to adjust the CSS files.

Do you mean to this code to the default.php in the layout folder?

<?php if($this->API->modules('logotop')) : ?>
<div>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="logotop" style="<?php echo $this->module_styles['logotop']; ?>" />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

I've done this. Or do you mean something else?

Yes I'm talking about it. Then you need publish your module in logotop position.

I've done this.

And where exactly you paste this code ? In which file ?
