To create the module position add the following to your templates index.php (../templates/j51_oxygen/index.php) just after <div id="header"> (line91)..

<div id="topsearch">

	<jdoc:include type="modules" name="topsearch" />

</div>

You must then style it with the following which you can add to the end of your templates template.css (../templates/j51_oxygen/css/template.css)

#header {

	position: relative;

}



#topsearch {

	position: absolute;

	height:50px;

	width:300px;

	top:25px;

	left:660px;

	margin:0;

	padding:0;

	z-index:99999;

}



#header .search .inputbox {

	background:#fff !important;

}

And that should be it. You'll find the position won't be listed in the positions dropdown so simply type it in to create (topsearch).

Thanks a lot. i will try it. ill let u know

it worked. thanks a lot

Hi

I have a problem with new module position. I also wish to add it to the same place as bandidom, and I've done everything you wrote here.
I even added position in templateDetails.xml, but no luck

Is it the same on Joomla 2.5? You mentioned <div id="header"> (line91)..
But on 2.5 template, div header is on line 197

Is it any different, or am I doing something wrong?

The above will also work with Joomla 2.5 although line numbers may differ slightly.

Would you have a URl yo your site so we can have a look?

Hi Ciaran

url is transports.site11.com

If you wish, I can send you admin pass, it's just a test site

Thanks

If you could... you can email them to info@joomla51.com

Mail sent.

Thanks

That should be ok for you now.

I gotta take the blame for this as I incorrectly called the new module position newsearch rather than topsearch in the end of the above post. I've edited the post so should now be correct.

Ciarán

I totally missed that. It couldn't be less simple mistake.
Damn, that weed is good. :laugh:

Thanks Ciaran, will try it later

Everything works great.

Thanks a lot

I never posted the page. I used it on civis.uprm.edu

I haven't line 91 on index.php, the last line is 66.

thanks

I modify Header.php, and template.css now work ok

For versions of the Oxygen template under the new framework add after <div id ="header" class="block_holder"> (Line 1) in the templates header.php (../templates/j51_oxygen/php/layouts/header.php)
