Hook location for widget?

[kontrabass]

I'm looking for a way to add a javascript advert (from skimlinks) on my showcase_item pages. I can easily add a widget to the nflj_showcase_item template position, and it appears in the sidebar at the bottom.... but is there a different location I can specify to get it higher on the page and more visible?

Thanks!

You can edit the template and place the code exactly where you want it to display OR the best way IMO is to use a Template Modification.

Put your site into DEBUG mode so that you can create/edit TMs.

Create a TM like this:



Here is what the Test Modification looks like. You can see that the TM found the template syntax you placed in the FIND and inserted the replacement ABOVE it (because the $0 was at the end). If you put $0 at the top of the Replace Block, it will insert it BELOW it.



Here is the exact text for the FIND:

<xen:if is="{$item.canViewComments} && {$category.allow_comments}">

If you don't want to do all the TM stuff, You can simply edit the template and add your code right about the comments section. Adding code to that area will merge with a breeze.
