This is not necessary. There are 2 ways: 1) Create a child template and change it there templateDetails.xml
2) Create a new module, manually enter the names of the position you want to display and press Enter, create a new position in the template settings and select there what you have assigned in the module.
These are a special case because they can be assigned in the template options. They should be part of the core template.
@shoulders Create child-template is the best way to override main template without worry about update.
My solution is not just for my particular situation. I just feel these module positions should be added to the core template for reasons stated above 😄 . It also makes things a little easier to setup for the end user as they have an obvious module position to use for the various functions.
I can edit my template etc.. to add these positions with ease, but thanks for the pointers.
The request
Can you add the following modules positions
The reason
I would like to add my social icons into one of the header blocks but currently I would have to use one of the other module positions which is a waste.
The new module positions above will allow proper use for the header block, social icons and the contact information all independently.
I do not want to use the
top-a
andtop-b
as they are used for other things such as the login and log out.Workaround
What I currently do is to add the module positions into the
templateDetails.xml
manually.
