There are times when it would be useful to include a modules content into an article. A simple example of this would be a FAQ module, which incorporates multiple articles into a single article, including rollover functions to hide and display the questions and their answers.

The modules are allocated to module positions and the module positions appear somewhere on the Web page as determined by the template. However, it is sometimes useful to have a module actually embedded within the article, as in the example given above.

To insert a module inside an article, use the command, as follows:

  1. Create a module and set its position to any value that doesn't conflict with an existing template position. You can type in the position value instead of selecting it from the drop-down list. For example, use the position myposition.
  2. Assign the module to the Menu Items that contain the articles that you want the module to show in. You can also just assign the module to all Menu Items.
  3. Edit the articles where you want this module to appear and insert the text in the article at the place where you want the module.

Note that this only works when the Content - Load Module plugin is enabled. If this plugin is disabled, the text shows unchanged in the article.
