  • Click a module to use from the list.
  • Click Install Module
  • Click Edit
  • Choose a Content Placement to display the module in either the left or right column.
  • Enter a Sort Order value to order the display of the module in relation to the other modules.
    • Do not leave 0 as the Sort Order on modules as it can cause problems.
    • You can give it any number but it is advised to use values with increments of 10 so another module can easily be installed between others.

Tip: If you don't want to show a module, you can either disable (hide) it or remove (uninstall) it.

When playing with the design, it's a good option to disable it, as it saves the settings it has been given, meaning it will be exactly the same as it was if you choose to enable it again later.

However, this also means that it is loaded completely with every page, which in extreme circumstances might slow down your website.

If you are sure you don't want to use a module, it is better to remove it than to disable it.
