Cant find plugin position in Helix3.?

Post by mamandis » Tue Jul 26, 2016 7:46 am

Hello,

I try to create page with Helix3 template, first tried with template - in layout I see main body, in it, left and component positions, but in module position I cant choose it - there is no this position.
I tried to find information but no luck.

Next I trid start with Helix3 quick start package, I read documentation, but didnt find positions where are some components (didnt find comonents names too), checked all modules and plugins with no luck.

could you tell me how I can find components names (I checked them in images I attached).

help, please

Enable Preview Module Positions in the Options of Template Manager.

Add "tp=1" to the url to see the positions.

Try with ?tmpl=component. What you see then is the component area only.

I tried your pop-up and then page shows without menu and bottom components.
image in top is still there and I wanna understand where it hides to change it or place module to this position. :o

If it's still showing, it's probably inside the Article. What Menu Item Type are you using?

I wish I understand good about what You are asking :D

Menu item type is "page" and its linked to Home.

So how to understand Helix3 template? This template is described as easy rebuilding :D
