change the order of positions in a template

Hi,

I want to have tabs position show up further down on the page (currently, right below the menu). How can I do this?

Thank you

Come to think of it, I really don't get it. In the Layout page, the order of positions (top-down) is as follows:
Top
Header
Logo
Banner
Tabs
Menu
Grid1
Grid2
etc

\However, on the actual page, the Tabs position is shown below Menu, even though it's listed as above Menu in the Layout.

Also, in the template's default.php, the load order is again different than in the Layout or what comes out on the web page.

I'm seriously confused. How does this work, anyway, then? Please someone help me!!!

TIA

Hi Tia,

Sorry for the confusion

Try this

If you open this file

\responsive2\tpls\default.php you can change the block order by cutting and pasting

<?php $zen->loadBlock('tabs'); ?>

e.g. changing the order of this so its below other blocks

If you do update the template it will be overwritten so its something to bear in mind

Thanks a lot, Paul. That worked. I wonder why the order of positions is not the same in the Layout page (the one used for customizing the template).

And, LOL, TIA (Thanks In Advance) :laugh: :laugh:
