Adding Module Positions to K2 Content was created by Heather
I would like to add a few module positions to the item view of K2 content for a sports site I am working on (a big deal).

They'd like to have a few positions available, and I'm hoping someone here could give me the basics of how I might add one in.

Thanks!

I've been looking for the same thing. Specifically, in Joomla one can use the {loadposition xxx} statement in a Joomla article, where xxx is the position that holds modules. Is there a similar function here?

did you found solution?

I'm trying to include module in K2 template.
I used both forms. Jdoc: and mosLoadModile. No one of them doesn't work.

I wish to put banner module between Leading and Primary blocks on category page.
I used /com_k2/templates/default/category.php

Anybody has ideas how to resolve it?

I found this: forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?t=208387

I haven't tried it yet, but will probably try it out today or tomorrow.

I've tested. It works in article.
Tomorrow I'm plannin to put it in content.php and test how it works in K2 layout. I hope it will.

I've tryed to add extended module in article. It works with if you use
{loadposition user7}
Where user7 is position for your module

If you want to add module in other component, not com_content you have to use following php-code

Result here: street-style.ru/v2/
I put banner between Leading and Primary block in K2 layout.

Ok, I have to admit that I am stumped. My goal is to add two module positions to the K2 item.php file. I tried your php code and it would not work for me (I could be brain dead). Any thoughts?

Ideally, I'd like one here (I replace the code arrows with *, so the code would show):

*div class="itemHeader"*

*div id="center" class="float_right"* CENTER MODULE POSITION HERE */div*

*span class="itemDateCreated"* */span*

If you have any thoughts on this, I would be eternally grateful. Thanks!

Hi,

A quick and dirty solution to this question is to use the 'Modules Anywhere' plugin downloadable from the Joomla website.

I can confirm that I have tried it and it does work.

In operation you just place the appropriate tags and name of module in your K2 content where you want it to appear and it appears.

Best,

CHRIS

Interesting. I tried it, and it did not work. Perhaps I'll have to try again. Thanks for the note.
