Layout Variations

This module only comes with a default layout.

Layout Overrides

We cannot cater for all the possible combinations and variations by just using parameters. Therefore we leave it up to the site owner to use layout overrides to provide additional customisation of the supplied layout(s).

To create a layout override for this module, copy the following file:

/modules/mod_catalog_rated_nodes/tmpl/default.php

/templates/your_template/html/mod_catalog_rated_nodes/default.php

where your_template is the name of the directory for the default template you have set for your site. Make any adjustments to this new file. Never make changes to the original file as you risk loosing them when you upgrade this extension.

Please note that the Alternate Layout also looks in the Layout Overrides folder for the module, so you can include additional layouts with your template to choose from.
