Load module with loadposition, but using ID

Post by garek007 » Thu Feb 14, 2013 5:45 pm

Hi,

I'd like to avoid using a plugin if possible.

Does anyone know if I can load a module into the content space using the ID of the module? I know I can loadposition, but that will load every module that is assigned to that position. I don't want that, but really just want a select few.

I have some download modules that have links to PDFs. These are displayed in the 'side' module. I just want to display all of these on their own page. If anyone knows another way to do this, please let me know

change module's position whatever you want in position textbox, (ex: 00000)
then, just use: {loadposition 0000}

thanks, but I don't want to duplicate the module for this purpose. I'd prefer to only have the module one time, then call it by ID
