Arrangement of Module Positions

Hi there,

we added a new module position (efTopRight) to the Shop and Bay template according to Gavick's tutorial.

In templateDetails.xml under <!--Template specific Module Positions --> we added the line:

Code: Select all

<position>efTopRight</position>

In gk.const.php under $GK_TEMPLATE_MODULE_STYLES = array( we added the line:

Code: Select all

'efTopRight' => 'none',

In logo.php between the code for the logo and the cart we added the lines:

Code: Select all

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

This new module position should be positioned on the top right of our homepage and will contain several graphics (Image Show) to promote special products.

After inserting the new module position, the links for the cart and the topmenu are moved to the left towards the logo defined in the template configuration. We want these links to appear beneath the newly added module position, aligned to the right.



Where can we define this?

Thanks for your help!

You need some css'ing also.
Could you please post an url to your site?

Hi Cyberek,

First thing - please move your module so it is after gkSearch element in the code.

Hi again,

I did that in template.css, was that right?

No, you need to do it in default.php file.

O.K., I removed the code from logo.php and put it into default.php right beneath the code for gksearch.

Looks better now, but still not perfect...

Now you need to add some css to it, but as I don't know how "perfect" works for you - please provide me a mockup how should it look exactly .

Hi again,

we know, that "perfect" has a different meaning for everyone. Even my boss and I often disagree in such matters, but the following mockup shows, what my boss wants the header to look like (upper part is a visual example, lower part the desired grid).

Best regards...
Andy

From what I see you have changed some stuff since I have seen page last time. The above mockup means completely rearrange and redesign of elements - this kind of changes is beyond our technical support.
