Configuring Modules
Joomla website layout is divided into two main parts - content section and module positions (check the module positions map below for more details). Modules in Joomla are used to output content into prepared positions.
Modules positions map
Available positions may vary in any particular template but general positions map can be seen below:
As you can see, the content area is marked with a different color. That's because the content area can't handle any modules by default. It displays only the page content.
All positions are turned off if no modules are assigned, so they won't hamper you.
Modules Configuration Table
Please note: If you installed the template sample data or used the Complete installation method, you can skip the following step as it is related to the manual modules configuration.
The table below lists all the modules used in this template and shows how to configure them correctly. All the modules can be accessed through the Joomla Administration panel from the Extensions > Module Manager screen.
