Great Concept - No Documentation for J1.5 1 Year, 7 Months ago Karma: 0  
I wish I had £1 for every good piece of software let down by poor documentation!

In this case - where is the "How to Use" guide for J1.5 users? I realise that this is a free module BUT it is not intuitive to use and requires some explanation as to how to set up and use effectively.

For example, it seems that you must create some new module positions in order to put the modules there that you want Jootabs to show (well, this is what I think you have to do). However, in J1.5 I cannot see how to do this. In J1.x.x yes, easy. But in J1.5??

Clearly if I am putting jootabs on the home page and referencing 3 modules then I can not also have these showing on the home page - that's crazy. So, somehow I have to hide these modules away and just let jootabs show them. How??

This has to be a common problem surely - perhaps another members could help me out. It's one of the last missing pieces of the jigsaw - I have managed to work out most other undocumented stuff.

Regards
dave

In J1.5 you can just type in any unique module position not available on your template(user99 for example) on your tabbed module position parameter input/dropdown box and publish it.
