View All of the Module Positions

As your site grows, you’ll end up with a lot of module positions and finding them can be tough. Have you ever looked at a module and wondered which position it was in? Here’s how.

On the frontend, just add the tp parameter with a value of 1 on the end of the website URL. An example would be http://www.<yourwebsite>.com/index.php?tp=1.

That’s it. Or, if you have access to the backend as a Super Administrator, you can do the following:

  1. From the backend, go to Extensions→Template Manager.

  2. Click on the template whose module position you want to see.

  3. Click Preview in the toolbar.

For directions on preventing this check from working on your site, refer to Chapter 20.
