· #. An indexing number automatically assigned by Joomla! for ease of reference.
· Checkbox. Check this box to select one or more items. To select all items, check the box in the
column heading. After one or more boxes are checked, click a toolbar button to take an action on the
selected item or items. Many toolbar actions, such as Publish and Unpublish, can work with multiple
items. Others, such as Edit, only work on one item at a time. If multiple items are checked and you
press Edit, the first item will be opened for editing.
· Module Name. The name of the Module. You can click on the name to open the Module for editing.
· Enabled. A green tick or a red X showing whether the use of the component is enabled/disabled.
Click the icon to toggle the item between enabled and disabled.
· Order. The order to display modules within a Position. If the list is sorted by this column, you can
change the display order of modules within a Position by selecting a Position in the "Select Position"
filter and then clicking the arrows or by entering the sequential order and clicking 'Save Order'.
· Access Level. Who has access to this item. Current options are:
o Public: Everyone has access
o Registered: Only registered users have access
o Special: Only users with author status or higher have access
You can change an item's Access Level by clicking on the icon in the column.
· Position. The position on the page where this module is displayed. Positions are locations on the
page where modules can be placed (for example, "left" or "right"). Positions are defined in the
Template in use for the page. Positions can also be used to insert a Module inside an Article using
the syntax "{loadposition xxx}", where "xxx" is a unique position for the module.
· Pages. The Menu Items where this Module will be displayed. Options are "All" for all Menu Items,
"None" for no Menu Items, and "Varies" for selected Menu Items. A Module will only display on
Menu Items where it is selected.
· Type. The system name of the Module. Joomla! installs 20 standard Modules. Many Joomla!
Extensions contribute additional Modules. See Modules Site or Modules Administrator for
information about each of the standard Modules.
· ID. The ID number. This is a unique identification number for this item assigned automatically by
Joomla!. It is used to identify the item internally, for example in internal links. You can not change
this number.
· Display #. The number of items to display on one page. If there are more items than this number,
you can use the page navigation buttons (Start, Prev, Next, End, and page numbers) to navigate
between pages. Note that if you have a large number of items, it may be helpful to use the Filter
options, located above the column headings, to limit which items display.
