Introduction
Here you are going to learn how you can have Joomla display a module in an article. The standard Joomla plugin called Content - Load Module has to be enabled (after a fresh Joomla installation it is enabled by default). Go to the Plugin Manager and double check if it is enabled. If it is not, then enable it.
Details
- Go to the Module Manager, find the module and click on it to edit it.
- On the Module's Edit screen and on the left hand side, click with the mouse in the "position" field.
- You can now enter a user-defined position for the module. Name it with a unique name, so that it doesn't conflict with the other template positions.
- Now in the article content add this text: {loadposition userposition},where userposition is the name you entered before in the Module's Edit screen.
- The Module will now appear in that specific place of the article, where you typed {loadposition userposition}.
- In case you want to use multiple copies of a Module, bear in mind that you should configure them so they appear in different user-defined positions. That is, for every copy of a Module a new user-defined position.
