Module titles are NOT showing up

Post by johk2 » Wed Jun 04, 2008 11:46 am

Hi,
I have designed a template that i am using with joomla 1.5. It is a very basic template as it only has the main body and a left module.
For some reason - the title of the modules (mod_search and mod_newsflash) are not showing up. I have made sure that they are set to do so under extension/module manager/ {module}. What have I missed?
This is the code i used to display my left module

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="left" style="" />
Thanks
jonas

Hi there have you checked "Article Manager" at the top of the "Content" menu?

At the top of the new screen you see is a "Parameters" button in the new window check to see if the radio button is selected beside "Show article title"

Hope this helps

Kate

Hi,
I can see the article titles. what I mean is the title for the modules like mod_poll mod_search etc etc. It doesn't matter where I load them in to but the title is not showing up. It must be something I am missing because if I use the standard template the titles are showing up but in the template i have designed they are not showing up. I am not sure what i have missed.
Thanks
Jonas

Are you basing your template on Beez?

I've had exactly the same problem with a template that I've done as a mod of Beez..

Comparing the two templates I saw that where I put:

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="right" />
beez had put:

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="right" style="beezDivision" headerLevel="3" />
so I changed my code to match Beez's and the module titles returned. I can't find the beezDivision CSS style anywhere, but defining H3 seems to work.

Hope this helps
Nic

What version of Joomla are you using? I created my template that was working with Joomla 1.5.3, since I upgraded to 1.5.4 I cannot display the modules title anymore. (I tried the Beez H3 thing as well out of curiosity to no avail)
Could that be a 1.5.4 'feature' ?

Try this instead:

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="left" style="xhtml" />

Hi,

I added style="xhtml" and the title is displayed, however it has an h3 style, which was not the case before, I'll have to update my CSS accordingly.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know whay it changed between version 1.5.3 and version 1.5.4?

Thanks.

Oh my gosh! Thank you so much! First time for me ever to build a template completely from scratch. Putting the style="xhtml" fixed my problem instantly

I was banging my head against the wall on this one. I had xhtml as the style. The problem was that i'd spelled 'style' as 'sytle'. So if the xhtml isn't the issue, check for other spelling errors.

yes I too was having a difficult time with this. worked like a charm.

I would imagine to create a seperate style for the module h3 tag you would have to do something like this.

.div_class name h3 {
Font:purple
}

Well I can mess around with that now that the actual title appears. I still dont understand it though. I actually also borrowed my code from another template which did not have the style"xhtml"

This was for a joomla 1.5 template though. I understand this solution works but why.
