New page

==How to Access==
Select '''Extensions → Module Manager''' from the drop-down menu on the back-end of your Joomla! installation.

==Description==
The Module Manager is where you add and edit Joomla! Modules. In Joomla!, Modules are used to display content and/or media around the main content.

<b>Module Facts:</b>
#All Joomla! websites require at least 1 Menu Module
#All Other Module Types are Optional. (Examples: News, Banner, Latest News, Polls)
#Every Menu is accompanied by a menu module. (Example mod_mainmenu)
#Multiple occurrences of similar module types.
#Some Modules are linked to components. For example, each Menu Module is related to one Menu component. To define a Menu in Joomla!, you need to create the Menu and Menu Items using the Menus screens and then create the Module for the Menu using this screen. Other Modules, such as Custom HTML and Breadcrumbs, do not depend on any other content. See [[screen.modules.edit.15|Module Manager - New/Edit]] for information about the different Module Types.

The Joomla! installation is accompanied with 20 module types, additional 3rd party modules can be located at the [http://extensions.joomla.org/ JED].

{{colheader|Number}}
{{colheader|Checkbox}}
*'''Module Name.''' The name of the Module. You can click on the name to open the Module for editing.
{{colheader|Enabled}}
*'''Order.''' The order to display modules within a Position. If the list is sorted by this column, you can change the display order of modules within a Position by selecting a Position in the "Select Position" filter and then clicking the arrows or by entering the sequential order and clicking 'Save Order'.

{{colheader|Position}}
{{colheader|Pages}}
{{colheader|Type}}

The functions are:
{{toolbaricon|Enable}}
{{toolbaricon|Disable}}
{{toolbaricon|Copy Module}}
{{toolbaricon|Delete}}
{{toolbaricon|Edit}}
{{toolbaricon|New Module}}
{{toolbaricon|Help}}

'''Site and Administrator Links'''
At the top left, above the Filter, you will see the following two links:[[Image:Module_manager_links.png|frame|center]]
*'''Site.''' Opens the Site tab. This is the default tab and allows you to manage the Modules for the front end of the web site.
*'''Administrator.''' This tab allows you to manage the Modules for the back end administration of the web site. If you do not need to change the Joomla! administrator menus, no modifications are required here.

==List Filters==
'''Filter by Partial Title'''

You can filter the list of items by typing part of the title or the ID number. Or, you can select a combination of Category and Published State.
{{colheader|List Filter}}

'''Filter by Template, Position, Type and Published State'''
In the upper right area, above the column headings, are following drop-down list boxes as shown below:[[Image:Module_manager_filters.png|center]] The selections may be combined. Only items matching both selections will display in the list.
{{colheader|Select Template}}
{{colheader|Select Position}}
{{colheader|Select Type}}
{{colheader|Select Enabled State}}

==Quick Tips==
*You can change the order of Modules within a Module Position as follows:
**Select the desired Position using the Position Filter. This will limit the list to Modules that are assigned to this Position.
**Change the order using the Up or Down arrows or by typing the order number and pressing the Save Order icon. The Modules will display in the new order within the Position.
*You can open a Module for editing by clicking on the Module Name. This opens the [[screen.modules.edit.15|Module Manager - New/Edit]] screen.
