Hi Folks,

Is there a module which a user can expand/collapse its contents?


Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I am looking for the same thing... More specifically, I was hoping to find a plugin for disabling the right module position -- so that an article on a particular page can have a fuller screen view. Any advice?

Hey,
it's up to the specific module or specific template to provide such feature (like JA_Purity or JA_Purity_II). In JA_Purity there's even a feature to save the collapsed state in cookies but for some reason it's not being read back.

Today I've found JA Tabs That should be applicable to any item (content, module, etc.).

Piotr

You can use some simple php code to collapse the module position when it's empty.

Let's say your module position's name is "left" this is the code you might see in your template's index.php file:

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

All you need to do is to replace that with this:
Code:
<?php if($this->countModules('left')) : ?>
   
     <div id="left">
          <jdoc:include type="modules" name="left" style="xhtml" />
     </div>

<?php endif; ?>

What that extra bit of code does is it tells Joomla to load that position only if it has at least one active module inside. Make sure your css allows the other columns to fill up that space by not giving them a set width and you'll be golden :)

P.S. remember to replace 'left' in the php code with whatever your div id is.
