You can insert a module inside an article using the "{loadposition xx}" command, as follows:
- Use the menu manager to create a new unique menu name. This will be used in the module manager to assign the mainmenu module you instantiate. Its name will appear in the basic parameters menu name list. --Dpminusa 10:34, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
- Create a module and set its position to any value that doesn't conflict an existing template position. You can type in the position value instead of selecting it from the drop-down list. For example, use the position "myposition".
- Assign the module to the Menu Items that contain the articles that you want the module to show in. You can also just assign the module to "All" Menu Items.
- Edit the articles where you want this module to show and insert the text "{loadposition myposition}" in the article, at the place where you want the module to show.
The module will show at that point in the article.
