I'm creating a website using Joomla 2.5, and I need one of my modules to appear in the sidebar in the frontpage and in the footer on the other pages, the only solution I found so far is to duplicate my module and assign it to different positions, but this method is not very easy to use as I have a multilingual website with 4 languages, so every time I change something I have to make 8 different modifications,

So is there a more easy and elegant solution to do this?


Answer

To display one module on two (or more) positions, you can create two (or more) module positions with the same name on different places in your template. e.g.

<div id="sidebar">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="position-0" />
</div>
<div id="footer">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="position-0" />
</div>
