In Joomla 1.5, you could type ?tp=1 behind the url to find all the module positions of a template. In Joomla 2.5 however that doesn't work by default. An extra security feature has been added to safe guard that information. In this tutorial we will show you how to display the module positions of your template. Let's get started! Go to the Template Manager Options![]() In your Administrative backend go to Extensions >> Template Manager >> Wait for the page to load >>Options Enable Preview![]() Set Preview Module Positions to Enabled ![]() Either Save & Close or Save ?tp=1![]() Behind your domain root url, type ?tp=1 e.g. www.youtsite.com/tp=1 Hit enter. Success![]() You now have all your module positions for your template. When you are done, you can go back through the process and disable the preview module positions option. |

Pawel Frankowski, thanks for that really helpful tip. I was wondering how to do this.
I tested it out and it works great. I also tried using a simple line for the opacity, which also works well.
I wanted to test a few more things, but I'll try to add an advanced tip on Monday.
Kind regards,
Nick
