Modules Anywhere Popular Plugin

With Modules Anywhere you can include a single module or complete module positions anywhere in your site, including inside 3rd party components and even inside other modules.

Why use Modules Anywhere, and not the {loadposition} plugin?

* It works anywhere, not only in articles. It even works in modules!
* You can load a single module, not only complete module positions.
* You can control the html display style from within the tag, not only one global setting.
* You have some security setting, so you can disable this feature for lower user types.
* It comes with a very easy to use editor button.

You can set Modules Anywhere to also handle the {loadposition} tags. In that case, you can safely disable the {loadposition} plugin all together.


Modules Anywhere is based on Modules in Content. But Modules Anywhere is a lot more useful. Unlike Modules in Content, it also allows you to place modules in other places than only articles. And there are some more cool features!

If you use Modules in Content, you can replace it by Modules Anywhere!
That means, you must uninstall Modules in Content if you install Modules Anywhere.

Making beginners like me love joomla more everyday!
This plugin is great! It should be included in the v1.6 release!

I hate when my client requests a new page with a unique menu in a unique position that requires me to add new code to my template index.php file. Why have to alter all that code for one stinkin' page?

This extension simplifies the entire process. I strongly endorse the download of this plugin!
My client wanted 2 lines as a title for a menu and thanks to Peters FANTASTIC module I could achieve this. I created a custom module and had my title lines first and then I called my menu module using MODULES ANYWHERE below my text. Unfortunately the CSS didn't carry through but Peter was brilliant in showing me how to resolve this. Just have the same module suffix as the menu suffix in your custom module. Brilliant module and superb support. Thanks Peter!!

I love this extension. There is no way for me to make it easier to integrate a module in a content item.

This is by far one of the best extensions that I installed to date. It works like a charm. If you do not have JCE version 1.5.6, upgrade. The JCE editor causes some problems that are not related to Modules Anywhere but affects the functionality of Modules Anywhere in the editor.

Nice work!

Hi there, I was searching for something like this since many hours ago but now I find it. Really thanks!

It's a must have plugin, easy to use, and it's free ;)
Thank you very much, Peter.
But I have one problem to report, that is the pagination of module return an error direction, (return error weather click to other pages or 'next' link).

Thanks for the review.
Please post your error report on my forum so we can discuss it...

Every Joomla designer needs this essential tool for their sites. It's easy to install and configure and adds so many wonderful possibilities for integrating modules inside components or, as the name says, anywhere! Great job.

It doesn't play perfectly nice with every template out there when wrapping the module in divs (had some very minor layout issues with RocketTheme, in particular), but I still can't imagine doing my work without it.
Owner's reply

The styling of modules is controlled by the templates css file. Some templates have there module style definitions formed in a way that they only work if the module is inside certain module positions.

So that means that modules outside those positions do not get styled the way you might want.

Usually you can quite simply fix that by changing the css file so the styling also affects modules in the content area.

It can't get any simpler than this, and the editor button is very handy to pick on modules without living the current article.( that was a surprise )
For some reason it doesn't insert the snippet in JCE, but, I wouldn't even bother with it, it already does more than expected.
Check the other extensions from his site, everything he has developed should be part of the Core. Thank very much for this and all your extensions.

The JCE problem is a bug in JCE. They have a fix on their site here:

I found this module really useful and have already used it several times in my sites.
I have downloaded several extensions and am not often compelled to write a review - but this time is different!
The support offered when I was having alignment issues with one of the modules I was trying to place was second to none. Peter had such patience and was quick with his responses and offered great suggestions.
I thoroughly recommend this module and will be looking out for other extensions from No Number.

Thanks for your review! Have you tried out my newest 3 extensions yet? (see my website).

This guy makes solid stuff... click his name, then check what he makes and download it all.. because it will work!
byBernhardL on October 20, 2009
So easy to use, all you do is click a button in the editor. This is what I call "perfectly integrated".

Favorited the extension

Thank you

I was a bit of a noob to begin with and put the wrong module tag name in the article. After a few quick head scratches, I have a simple image rotator in my article. thanks

I used this to show Virtuemart featured products in a page. Works perfectly!!
byjbacky on September 25, 2009
If you aren't using this extension you probably should be. It works exactly as advertised and I wouldn't set up a Joomla site without it.

I use several of this developer's extensions, and have no problem recommending any of them.
byDirtyMonkey on September 23, 2009
I've used this on many sites with all the leading template developers and I highly recommend it.

It does what it should do AND makes it so simple for the user to use that this plugin sets the standard.

Edit article, select position in article, click on the "Module" button at the bottom of the article content edit pane, select the module you want to insert from the pop-up window and you're done.

Absolutely perfect, this is exactly what I was looking for. Just installed and it was working, took me less than 1 minute! Congrats for a great plugin.

One of the easiest modules I've ever installed and used. Worked like an absolute charm. Documentation right on the page, had it working in 10 minutes. Love it!
