Form Fields¶

Module Tab¶

Left Panel¶

• This changes from module to module.

Right Panel¶

• Title Show or hide the module's title in the front end.
• Position Choose the module position you wish this module to be displayed in. A custom module position can be entered for use with the load position plugin or the position button can be pressed to select a module position from the template.
• Status The published status of the item.
• Access The viewing Access Level for this item.
• Module Ordering This shows a drop down of every module in the position that the current module is in. This is the order that the modules will display in when displayed on in the front end as well as in the Modules page.
• Start Publishing Date and time to start publishing. Use this field if you want to enter content ahead of time and then have it published automatically at a future time.
• Finish Publishing Date and time to finish publishing. Use this field if you want to have content automatically changed to Unpublished state at a future time (for example, when it is no longer applicable).
• Language Item language. This is absent from Administrator modules.
• Note This is normally for the site administrator's use (for example, to document information about this item) and does not show in the Frontend of the site.
