Hello,

I would like to know if its possible to target EB output to a specific theme position within the page content section? For example, if a theme's main content area of the page is divided in different sections A, B & C, and by default any menu item created using EB outputs to the first section A of the theme. But if we would like to output to say section B instead then how do we achieve that?

Regards,
Imran
This is customized in your Joomla template. The Joomla template defines how it appears and not the extension. The extension only outputs what it needs to output and that is just about it.

If you look into /templates/protostar/index.php the following code is responsible to generate the output of the component,

[gist]
<jdoc:include type="component" ></jdoc:include>
[/gist]

Hi Imran,
Are you referring to EasyBlog theme or site template? For site template, generally there is a layout that is followed and if you want to change anything in regards to the template, you should consult your template provider.

If you are just changing the ordering of elements within EasyBlog theme, for example switching positions between the comments area and related posts area, then modifying the theme files should help you.
If you are still unclear, perhaps you can elaborate more specifically on what you intend to achieve?

Hi,

I'm referring to site template. No, it's not about changing the template. Its about using a particular area of template for EB. For example, a template has following layout:

Left Column + Content + Right Column

And the 'Content' section is sub-divided into further 3 sections (rows), that is, Section A, Section B & Section C. If I would like to use section B (the middle section of the content area) for EasyBlog FrontPage or category layout listings then how & where would I specify the template position (section B in this case) so that the EB outputs all the posts to that particular area only?


Regards,
Imran
