Hi

Unfortunaly I cannot find anything usefule explanations on the Internet about Module Positions of Templates of Joomla 3.2.
Either I'm getting old or stupid... or both :-)

Can somebody please link me to a site where Module Positions for Joomla 3.2 are well explained well with visual examples ?
What are does columns for each Module for ? When I change the amount of columens or when I do some colorformating to a cell of Module then I can't see any difference when I preview it on different Devices or Browserresolutions.

Kind regards
Alain

Module Positions are like placeholder where you can place desired Modules later from your Joomla admin.

TemplateToaster offer extensive options to add/edit and design Module Positions in templates, you can add a row of positions and style each one.

Every cell in a row is a position.

For aligning four Module Positions in a row we set the default width of every position to 25%, you can increase or decrease these values from : TemplateToaster -> ModulePostion -> Click on the ModulePosition of which you want to increase or decrease width -> PoistionCell -> width.

Or you can directly drag the separator between two positions for resizing.

Yes that's what I thought about it.

But for example on a Smartphone device, these columns are not in a row anymore, they are aligned one under another.

How can I determine the behaving of such clolumns of a row depending on the screen width or depending on the device ?

Kind regards

Hi,

This behaviour depends upon the screen width below 480px, above this width the modules are shown in a row.

Thanks for that information.
