Hey guys, hope you are well.

How would i go around calling a module manually?

For example, rather than having it aligned "content top/left/right/bottom" can i just add the module manually where i want in my template file?

I have a 3 column content section in a template im making :

Left = Category List
Middle = Slider
Right = Welcome text

Now, if i add welcome text + slide to content top, it gets called into the middle box (Where slider is) so it displays both text + slider, but i want them seperate

Make sense? Sorry if its vague!

Thanks in advance!

Make sense, but does not work this way, unfortunately. Must have been forgotten, or better, it's just not Framework Style, to do such (basically) simple, direct-content-call things without 'pre-given surrounding'..., I assume. I miss such 'solutions' as well!

There is an extension that adds a lot more layout positions if of any use

Hey guys thanks for the replies, appreciated!

I managed to find a "fix" for myself, since i use no left/right orientated modules, i simply used the content_right tag to place the content where i wanted.

But in doing so, i ran into another problem, when column_right is called, its being appended with a class...

Code: Select all

<column id="column-right" class="col-sm-3 hidden-xs">
So, its nesting col-sm-3 hidden-xs within my already stated col-md-3 does anyone know where that is being added from? Can i remove it?

Cheers!
