Hi,
In an effort to add in advertisement in our blog site, is it possible to easily add a module position in the front-page layout after the featured items slider ?
Is this an option or do we need to hack the EB theme ?
How would you do this ?
Thanks
Danny
Hey Danny,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. You might want to place it under the position "easyblog-before-entries" as described here, http://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/administrators/module-positions/module-positions

Sounds like a perfect solution
But it doesn't seem to work in our new site

Set up all required access for you bellow.


I have defined 2 URLS in your private forum tabs bellow:
1- Link to the module I defined for this (I set the position to easyblog_before_entries as defined in the doc)
2-Link to the page it should be in (the module (banner) should appear after the featured slider just before the listings) ?

Thanks
Danny

Ahhhh!
The documentation specified "_" (underscores) whereas the actual position has "-" (dashes) !
All good now :-)
Works GREAT !
Thanks

Hi Majorkratze!
Have you tried with dashes instead of underscores ?
It worked for me in a FrontPage menu item type.
If it still doesn't work, try posting just an HTML module with Lorem Ipsum text inside to see if the problem isn,t the AdSense code.
Hope that helps
Danny
