index.php/?tp=1 works for Joomla 1.5, but how do we show them in Joomla 1.7 and 1.6?
One of the many changes in Joomla 1.7 is the fact that the url to view module positions is no longer enabled as standard. As a web designer who sometimes wishes to know where module positions are, especially if you are using a commercial or free template you have not constructed yourself the ?tp=1 code was vital.
Joomla 1.7 now disabled this functionality by default on a new Joomla 1.7 installation. But hope is not lost it is a simple change to activate again.
1. Firstly login to your Joomla website.
2. Navigate to the Extensions / Template Manager menu option.
3. Click the Options button, top right.
4. You can now click the Enabled button and Save and Close.
5. Now you can add index.php?tp=1 to your public url and the template positions will be displayed.
6. Don't forget to diable the ability once you have completed your tasks.
Hope that helps solve some frustrations and helps you understand Joomla 1.7 a little more!
