Moduli
From Joomla! Documentation
Moduli ni viendelezo vyepesi na rahisi vinavyotumika kwa kutoa kurasa. Moduli hizi mara nyingi ni kama "visanduku" vilivyopangwa kiduara kwa komponenti katika ukurasa wa kawaida. Mfano maarufu sana ni moduli ya kuingia. Moduli zinapeanwa kwa kitu cha menyu, kwa hivyo unaweza kuamua kuonyesha au kuficha (kwa mfano) moduli ya kuingia, itategemea na kurasa (kitu cha menyu) gani mtumiaji yuko kwa sasa. Baadhi ya moduli zimeunganishwa na komponenti: moduli ya “habari za karibuni”, kwa mfano, unganisha kwa komponenti ya yaliyomo (com_content) na onyesha viungo kwa vitu vya yaliyomo mapya. Kwa vyovyote, moduli hazi hitaji kuunganisha na komponenti; hakuna hata haja ya kuunganishwa na kitu chochote na unaweza kuwa HTML ya tuli au maandishi.
Moduli zinavyosimamiwa katika mtazamo wa Msimamizi wa Joomla! na Menega wa Moduli. Habari zaidi kuhusu usimamizi wa moduli zinaweza kupatikana kwenye toleo la mwafaka wa skrini ya usaidizi.

Module Positions
A module position is a placeholder in a template. Placeholders identify one or several positions within the template and tell the Joomla! application where to place output from modules assigned to a particular position. The template designer has complete control over module positions, creating variations between templates and the respective Joomla! default positions assigned to modules in the installation sample data.
For example, the module position Left could be defined to be on the left side of the template to display a site navigation menu. So if a module is assigned the Left position, it will be displayed wherever the designer puts that Left module position - not necessarily the left side of the page.

Modules are one of the simplest parts of Joomla and a great entry point for people learning to use the system (the equivalent of widgets in wordpress). They can be displayed just about anywhere on a page (in all the positions a template allows as well as in the main content area using the loadmodule plugin for the com_content component).
